Searching for Captain Henry Fuller
The Gettysburg Campaign

19m
The monument to Union Captain Henry Fuller is deep in the Rose Woods south of the Wheatfield at Gettysburg. There are no designated trails or paths down to his monument. Because of this, it’s one of the least visited monuments on the battlefield. Fuller was the commander of Company F of the 64th New York Infantry Regiment. He was killed on July 2, 1863 as the 64th New York, of Brooke’s Brigade, was retreating through Rose’s Woods towards the Wheatfield.
