Monuments to a Person at Gettysburg

A number of monuments at Gettysburg are dedicated to just one individual. Eight equestrian statues honor the major generals who commanded the Armies and Army Corps. (Robert E. Lee's equestrian statue is actually part of the State of Virginia monument but is also included here.) The bronze statues of standing figures are mostly the commanders of divisions, but also include a Chaplain and a local citizen who picked up his musket and went out to defend his country. Other monuments honor individuals with a bronze tablet or with a name carved in stone.
