The Sherfy Farm at Gettysburg is on Emmitsburg Road about a mile south of town. At the time of the battle the fifty acre farm was owned by Reverend Joseph Sherfy. It included the famous Peach Orchard to the south of Wheatfield Road along with both Big and Little Round Tops and the Devil’s Den.

The house was built in the 1840’s. You can still see bullet holes in its brickwork, signs of the fierce fighting that took place around it on July 2nd and 3rd. The current barn is a postwar replacement. The original had been used by the Confederates as a field hospital but it had burned during the battle.

Joseph (1813-1883) and Mary Sherfy (1818-1904) and their six children were pacifist members of the Church of the Brethren. A seventh child would be born to the family after the war. As the Union troops of John Reynolds’ 1st Corps made their way up Emmitsburg Road on July 1st they marched past a large water tub along the road which Joseph worked to keep filled. Mary and her mother Catherine baked bread and passed it out to the men. They were ordered away from the farm on the morning of the 2nd, driving their stock southeast of the Round Tops and to Two Taverns.

After the battle

Joseph and his son returned on the 6th. Their house was ransacked and had been damaged by at least seven artillery shells. Their possessions were trampled into the mud of their yard, mixed with blood, body parts and every imaginable kind of filth. The orchards and fences were destroyed. Fields were covered with dead men and 48 dead horses. Inside the ruins of the barn were the charred remains of the wounded men who had been unable to escape the fire.

What started as a road trip through the Romanian mountains quickly turned into a battle with our stubborn Lada Niva. As the engine of our exploration vehicle kept overheating, we pushed deeper into the Carpathians - through forgotten villages and overgrown graveyards - chasing rumors of a lost wooden church hidden deep in the forest. What we found was a haunting time capsule, and the most remote abandoned place we've ever explored! Join this exploration on YouTube: youtu.be/crlyDM-mvEs
