Evergreen Cemetery is a 29.12 acre, private, historic, rural cemetery on a ridge in Gettysburg Borough and Cumberland Township, Adams County, Pennsylvania. Founded nine years before the Battle of Gettysburg and the adjacent Soldiers' National Cemetery, Evergreen became the eponym for Cemetery Hill,[18] a landform most noted as the keystone of the Union position during the epic Battle.[19] The dedication address at Evergreen (known at the time as Ever Green) was given by Revered J.H.C. Dosh in 1855. Dosh asked about the cemetery, "could a more lovely spot have been chosen?"[20]
