Welcome to Gettysburg Chronicles

Posted on January 23, 2026April 6, 2026 By BD

After much consideration and finding out the tricks of the trade for setting up webpage from scratch, my mind went off the rails. I wanted to make it “cool” to look at, but forgot about making it accessible and easy to get the links for people to read. The old site meant that I had to ask a friend pretty much about everything. Now, with his help about this setup that’s almost finished, I would be able to add things much quicker and easier.

Enjoy, the wait is almost over.
