This post combines two of my favorite things: the Battle of Gettysburg and fun quizzes. Material culled from my recent e-Book, "What They Did There: Profiles From the Battle of Gettysburg (Amazon Kindle, $2.99).
1. Myles Keogh, an aide to Gen. John Buford at Gettysburg and later one of those killed at the Little Bighorn, is name-checked in what 1949 John Ford/John Wayne western?
2. Lydia Hamilton Smith, a native of the Gettysburg area and the longtime housekeeper, business associate and likely paramour of Thaddeus Stevens, was played in the film "Lincoln" by what "Law & Order" veteran?
3. W. Tazewell Patton, the great-uncle of George S. Patton, was mortally wounded during Pickett's Charge. Who played Patton in a cameo in the film "Gettysburg"?
