Hill and Longstreet approached Gettysburg from the Chambersburg area, while Ewell went further north, up to the Carlisle area before approaching Gettysburg from the north. They basically followed the route of present day US11 and I-81 before bee lining for Gettysburg. > -----Original Message----- > From: roots-in@roots-l.rootsweb.com [mailto:roots-in@roots-l.rootsweb.com] > On Behalf Of MaeMay510@aol.com > Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 4:09 PM > To: ROOTS-M@rootsweb.com > Subject: [ROOTS-L] Bedford Co.
