The battle lasted the better part of three days. It began in earnest at about 9 AM. July 1, 1863 when elements of Confederate general Henry Heth encountered the cavalry of Union general John Buford on the Herr Ridge astride the Chambersburg Pike northwest of Gettysburg. [1]
It would end on July 3, 1863 at about 4 PM. with the repulse of Pickett's Charge on the Union Center at Cemetery Ridge and the ending of a short cavalry clash between troopers of Confederate J.E.B. Stuart and Federal David McM. Gregg just east of town between the York and Hanover roads.[2]
