General Gordon at The Battle of Antietam

In commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Antietam on September 17th, the FHC offers this lecture as part of our multi-year focus on Framingham’s rich Civil War history.  Following his recent visit to the famed battlefield, Town Historian Fred Wallace reconstructs a blow-by-blow account of Framingham’s General George Gordon’s role and that of the Union’s Twelfth Corps.  Scenes of the location then and now will be a part of the lecture.  $5 suggested donation.
