  • John Burns - The Old Hero of Gettysburg


    Robert E. Lee and his invading Army of Northern Virginia brought the Civil War to the quiet and pastoral town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania in early July 1863. A gutsy Gettysburg civilian named John Lawrence Burns who was a cobbler, a town constable, and an old man, took part in the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg. Civilian Burns is known as, “the old hero of Gettysburg.”

    There is truth and myth concerning the story of John Burns. Over time, his story has become somewhat confusing. Burns or others seemed to add to it, or change it, as time went by, usually by embellishing Burns’ story. Whether this was intentional or not, who can say? It can be difficult historically to separate fact from fiction regarding John Burns. Let’s recognize that and enjoy the story of “the old hero of Gettysburg.”
