Elliott's Map of the Battlefield at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

This ground survey map covers the northern half of the battlefield (another part of the map covers the southern half). Included is the location of Camp Letterman, labeled as General Hospital. Following the battle, Camp Letterman was established as a central hospital to care for the thousands of wounded soldiers left behind by both armies. There is also a large concentration of both Union and Confederate burials near this location, as many soldiers eventually died from their wounds in the weeks and months following the battle.
