On July 1-3, 1863, Union and Confederate forces met a battle that would ultimately turn the tide of the Civil War. After three days of fierce fighting, General Robert E. Lee ordered his troops to retreat, thereby ending the Confederacy's most penetrating push into northern territory.

Today, Gettysburg National Military Park holds 1.3 million objects, including a large set of uniforms, flags, and guns.

The Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum’s various collections exist to serve as a repository for all archival and artifactual items related to the Seminole Tribe and, more generally speaking, to the Native American populations of the Southeastern United States. Collections owned by the museum include a multitude of different archival and artifact items. While this online portal features postcards and baskets exclusively, the Museum’s on-site holdings include historical newspapers, manuscripts, patchwork clothing, dolls, militaria and various pieces of ephemera produced during the early 1900s.
