The Monuments and Memorials of the Gettysburg Campaign
1st Pennsylvania Artillery, Battery B (Marker)
Dedicated: 1879.
Location: East Cemetery Hill. Located near the main regimental monument on East Cemetery Hill.
Description: This now very faded marker was placed around 1879 and was one of the first monuments on the battlefield. In fact, it was the first artillery monument placed on the battlefield. The inscription is now completely illegible, unfortunately. Position marker (1879) is 3.11 foot-in-diameter and 4.9 foot high, composed of marble and sandstone. (The top of the marker has since been replaced and is now fully legible.)
