CIVIL WAR UNION GETTYSBURG SOLDIERS NATIONAL MONUMENT MUMPER STEREOVIEW PHOTO 1869. PHOTOGRAPHED AND PUBLISHED BY THE FAMOUS LOCAL GETTYSBURG CIVIL WAR PHOTOGRAPHER. SOLDIERS NATIONAL MONUMENT without the "Plenty" or "Peace" statues was dedicated in 1869. The monument's "Plenty" statue was placed on August 26, 1869. Modern scholarship places the site of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address speech about 40 yards east of the soldier's monument.
When Lincoln gave the speech, at a spot that is now within the civilian cemetery, he was facing west, toward a flag pole that stood where the soldier's monument is today.
