1 Remembering Gettysburg A History There are two special days in Gettysburg every November called Dedication and Remembrance Day. On November 19, 1946, the Gettysburg Address anniversary date was formally designated as "Dedication Day" by a joint resolution of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. Annually now on November 19, there is a ceremony at the National Cemetery. The commemoration of Remembrance Day goes back to 1956 when the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, in conjunction with the city of Gettysburg, began a celebration to help ensure that the purpose for Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address would not be forgotten. That same year, the SUVCW dedicated a memorial statue to the Grand Army of the Republic and Albert Woolson, the last member of the G.A.R. Today, the program includes decorating the graves of the Civil War soldiers that died and are buried at Gettysburg, a memorial and wreath laying program at the Woolson memorial by the SUVCW, Woman's Relief Corps, Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War, Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic, and Auxiliary to the SUVCW and the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the United States. It is at this memorial program that the Gettysburg Address is read. This is followed by a parade that includes over 2,000 participants. Flags Memorial Day, May 30, 1908, marked the first time that flags were placed on the graves in the Gettysburg National Cemetery. In the fall of 1998, during the Remembrance Day event, the Department of Michigan, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War placed small 8 x12 State flags on the graves of the graves of 173 Michigan buried in the national cemetery. These flags were a gift from Mr. Richard Micka, Vice-President of the La-Z-Boy Corporation in Monroe, MI. With the knowledge that each of those men died serving under the flag of the United States, small U.S. flags were purchased in 2003 to also place on the graves. Members of the Michigan Allied Orders of the G.A.R. meet at 8 AM the morning of Remembrance Day to place both the U.S. and State flags on the graves. The flags remain on the graves throughout the weekend until removed on Monday.
2 Today Prior to the 150th anniversary program held last November in the Gettysburg National Cemetery, an assessment was made of all the flags and it was determined that time and the elements had taken their toll on the flags. The Champlin Corps No. 41, Woman s Relief Corps has faithfully cleaned, mended, and ironed these flags for more than ten years. Most importantly, they have ensured that the label, bearing the name and regiment of each soldier buried in the Michigan section, is securely attached to the staff of the State flag. To give proper credit to those men who gave their life at Gettysburg, each flag bears a name specific to his headstone. In conjunction with the special ceremony, Michigan Remembers Gettysburg, that was held at Gettysburg in 2013, the Department of Michigan, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, has partnered with the Woman s Relief Corps and History Remembered, Inc. to conduct a special flag retirement project. How You Can Help Retire the Colors You can purchase both the U.S. and State flags that have flown at Gettysburg for any of the soldiers in the following list. Price includes packaging and shipping. 1 set: $ sets: $15 each 11 or more sets: $12 each With each set purchased, you will receive the matching commemorative tin used to transport soil from Michigan to that soldier s grave for the November 2013 ceremony at no additional charge. These 4.5 tins include a special label identifying the soldier s name, unit and grave and still include soil residue from the soldier s county, farm, school, or other connection. All orders must use the official order form. All money raised, minus the packaging and shipping will be presented to the Department of Michigan, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War for future maintenance and the purchase of replacement flags.

NOTE: There are many UNKNOWNs on this list with a name in parentheses indicating the name engraved on the headstone. However, most of these UNKNOWNs are names of men who did not die at Gettysburg or for some other reason are not the ones who are buried in that location. It is most likely the man who is buried beneath that stone came from the regiment listed on the stone. Therefore, the UNKNOWN soldier in that grave still receives our respect and honor even though he is known only to God.
