- Join Garry Adelman at the Yorktown Battlefield as he details the photos that were taken there during the Civil War.
This video was originally made for American Battlefield Trust Color Bearer members and is now available for our entire UA-cam audience!
I commend you Garry... it's your passion that will not only bring your history to life once again... but cast it into the future for generations to grasp and understand. Facts, information and accurate positions would otherwise be overlooked and subsequently forgotten. I tip my cap Sir.
Some really great photographic detective work! Keep the terrific battlefield trust videos coming.
One of the most extraordinary and satisfying presentations from the American Battlefield Trust: Staring directly into the face of history by virtue of the imagination, vision and persistence of Garry Adelman, his associates, and his team. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much.
Fascinating video!
You outdid yourself this time Mr. Adelman. Hard to do, I know! Very cool video. Thanks
1. Thank you to the land owners for allowing Gary on their property.
2. Thank you to Gary for the photographic analysis. It is something I have no capacity for doing.
3. I was extremely impressed with the picture in a picture technology that allowed Gary to self film this video.
Thank you for this video and showing the 5 plate panorama...I can’t even imagine the effort required getting those shots.
What a fascinating explanation. Thanks so much for doing this.
Thank you, Garry, for a most informative presentation!
Absolutely love this video! I'm a high school U.S. History teacher and I am always trying to excite my students using the idea of historical detective work. What a great example this is! Thanks.
GREAT WORK Gary! This was an engaging video, and I supremely appreciate the research that went into it.
Gary Adelman is the greatest!
This was so cool!!! I got chills when the photo with the ladder appeared
Always enjoy the show's..take care!
Garry, This was wonderful! Thank you for all your work on behalf of the Trust; we appreciate your effort. Wishing you a happy and healthy new year!

Well done Garry...

That is amazing work, Garry! It had to be very exciting for you!! Keep it up, sir!
Great job Garry, you are excited all of the time as far as I can tell. This would definitely get your pulse going. Thanks for saving a Spring video for Winter, our minds don't hibernate!
I could spend hours peering into those photos.
This is just flat out gold Garry - great job!

We were there with you in 2018, it was damn hot and muggy! Thank you for taking us back Garry.
Perfect accomplishment, thanks so much!
Excellent detective work there, Garry.
Amazing vid..thank you !
Excellent research and interpretation.
Fantastic video! A veritable Historic Hat Trick for me! A Once-upon-a-Time commercial photog and revolutionary war history aficionado converted to the Civil War by both children’s attendance of Gettysburg College. A fella who’s planned his retirement to the tidewater area of VA. We have spent many a summers day exploring the land between Williamsburg and Gloucester point. Well done! Well done indeed! Many, many thanks! Keep up the great work for those of us unable to move about - your zeal is infectious!!!
EDIT: I was so enthused by the video, I completely forgot to wish you and everyone at the Civil War trust and every American history devotee, a very happy and healthy new year!‘. Sláinte Mhath ☘️
Absolutely made my day with this video Garry - Keep up the great work .
Totally enjoyed this video! I could feel your passion for the preservation of history as you talked. Have a Happy New Year and God Bless you and the Trust.
Thank you Garry so much for sharing!
Beautiful area,kinda sad some of immediate area is now developed.
Amazing job Sir. That is awesome 😊
Gary this was awesome! Great work! I thought it was interesting how you were mentioning the ladder in the tree and coincidentally there were ladders on the ground behind you.
That is some impressive detective work. Frassanito would be proud.
It's a beautiful area! I wonder if the graves are still there behind the clark house fence
I was wondering the same
Excellent and interesting video.
It appears that the clothing hanging on the fence at the Clark House is draped over the fourth slat in one shot and the second slat in the other.
Unbelievable. Thanks Garry. Happy New Year
I want to apologize for misspelling your name on this and previous videos. It’s Garry. I am sorry. I just watched your Trenton video and saw the proper spelling. Thank you for all your work.
Happy new year and as usual another great video 👌 keep them coming and have a great new year 🇱🇷🇱🇷
Detective work by Garry 🕵️♂️
Just amazing video 👌 you sure had your act together on this one I loved those old pictures just amazing
Awesome Garry.
Great detective work! Thanks Very interesting video! Happy New Year.
Amazing work Gary!
That is a great story!!!
Excellent detective work on your part.
Awesome video!
Correct me if I’m wrong but the few or lack of people in these pictures are because people in motion don’t show up in pictures from this time
very nicely done
Are the graves beside the fence still there??
can yall do some more of these this was awesome!!!!!!!
Superb work!
Outstanding!
i love this!
Awesome!
GGG grandfather was on Garrison duty in Yorktown 62/63. I am still trying to get into military library to read a soldiers diary who was with him. Covid is delaying that but this could really put some things in perspective if they r mentioned in the diary.
Amazing detective work! Thank you! But I wonder--are the bodies still buried in that yard? Does anyone know for sure or who they were?
Good work! Best video you've done.
Wow super cool!
Another great video
Totally cool video!
Well done Garry
Thanks, L'il Nemo!
You always say you know the story not always that's why I follow your channel
This was great episode !. I guess we should call you Detective Adelman or A.K.A. Sherlock.
Astonishing work. I would like to do some work there with a drone at tree height and try to replicate some of those shots. I'm attempting to replicate some historical photos, from various historical events, here in the Tennessee Valley.
These are fascinating! Any chance you can post links to the pictures at the Archives website?
I would be interested to know if the location where the end of the fence with clothing (@14:24) on it can be located? Reason is, are those who were buried there still there or have they been moved? If they are still there, what should be done for them?
I was wondering the same thing!
Awesome job
It would be awesome if someone took this photo research and typographical information from the area and did a virtual reconstruction of the camp.
Well done!
Super cool...!!!
Here's an interesting question that i've never seen brought up or talked about or discussed. At any time during the Civil War did any of the battlefields of The American Revolution play host or come close to being used for battle?
Oh for sure...around Williamsburg especially!
Yorktown?
I live right by Yorktown. The confederate army built their fortifications on the remains of the old British redoubts from 1781
And there is actually one surviving British redoubt known as the “untouched redoubt”
Very Good !
Garry I love your work! Too many “ums” on this one.
I'm not the only one wondering if the graves are still there.
The dam number 1 cemetary is still there next to the road.Beyond that I don't think there's much left
Awesome
Wound up a little tight!
The video quality and productions has gone up. I see my Amazon donations are being put to use well, haha.
What about the graves?
@ 13:35 a Contraband Woman? I think we know them as blacks and what not. Seriously, I really enjoy your work. Thanks for posting.
According to Wikipedia, "contraband was a term commonly used in The United States military during the American Civil War to describe a new status for certain escaped slaves or those who affiliated with Union forces. In August 1861, the Union Army (and the United States Congress) would no longer return escaped slaves who went to Union lines and classified them as "contraband of war," or captured enemy property. They used many as laborers to support Union efforts and soon began to pay them wages..."
(For more, go to Wikipedia...)
@@ppena4128 That is correct. But, only for slave states that were participating in open rebellion. I was being fecious about contraband. Slight sarcasm. I don't do emogis. At first, Sherman wanted no part of contraband. At least not humans. They were taking resources faster than his bummers could steal them.
I left one of the "r"'s out. Sorry.
I was deeply offended by the missing "r". Wait, I'm over it.
Next time don't have so much coffee before going out to film.
Um um um um um...
Great video, but as honest feedback, your delivery gets rather too breathless and wordy which detracts from the message.
Great video!
