Civil War Soldiers - Ghosts still walking home after nearly 100 years.

Published 2023-08-20
I was a child living on a gravel road in southern Ohio in the late 1950s to early 1960s. At times, my grandmother would tell me to get to the front porch, "they're coming," she'd say. Soon, about 30 or so Civil War Soldiers in blue would walk by the house in broad daylight, totally physical. Kicking up rocks on the dirt road, talking among themselves, some in small groups and some alone. Uniforms torn and dirty. They never responded to us, they walked on, behind our barn then up over the hill. This happened many times over the years.

Decades later, I saw a documentary on the Civil War and learned that those soldiers had to often walk home hundreds of miles. Many that did survive the war did not survive the long walk home. I always wondered if these boys were soldiers still trying to get home.

    Many years ago, my husband and I traveled south to Gettysburg from northeast PA. We had one of Ken Burns books of the Civil War and used it to guide us through the battlefield with “before and after” assistance. I wandered up onto some rocks, alone, while my husband was reading about the area. I heard footsteps not too far from me and saw a man in uniform looking out over the battlefield. He was tall and his uniform was very worn, dirty. I studied him but didn’t talk to him. He left the area but I couldn’t see him go anywhere. When I asked my husband, he didn’t see any soldier. I wish I had followed him.

    "trying to find their way home"... sad sad phrase.

    Just saw your Reddit post; I’m here and subbed. I’m excited to hear more of your stories. Edit: Please do the artwork and post it; I’d love to see your drawings of the soldiers! I hope you do find a way back to your old farm and see if the soldiers are still marching by. I’m thinking you’d say words to help them cross over, right?

    You can help those soldiers by sending them all lots of love and showing them the light. with prayer and love and light souls can go rest in Gods loving arms. Because those soldiers have relatives in heaven watching them and waiting.

    Harping….. please write a book! Your journey is fascinating and the world needs to have it in written form!

    A medium/clairvoyant I once knew said that his spirit guide took him travelling one night to rescue soldiers from the second world war, who thought they were still fighting. He saw that they all looked confused and wandering. They were guided towards the light by his guide and he said he was privileged to watch it. This lovely old gentleman (now deceased) was so genuine and authentic, gifted with insight. He told me many things about myself that no one else on the planet knew. So perhaps your ghosts were trapped in time too. Then there is the argument for being in different dimensions at the same time isnt there? We certainly dont have all the answers but these topics are so interesting. tku Dave.

    What an awesome story of a residual haunting that you actually got to see. Just watched both your videos. I subscribed. Thank you for sharing. Take care. 🤘
  • @ariellas.5150
    It could be a psychic imprint. If they didn't react to you, this could be why.
  • @Callie7912
    So sad. It's true some soldiers were very young. My husband's ancestor was only 13 when he fought for the union. He made it home....thankfully. I hope those poor soldiers find their way home.
