Tuhia he whakamāramatanga mō tēnei wāhanga - Ko James F. Gibson (1828/29<unk>?), tērā pea ko te kaitango whakaahua tino nui o te pakanga, ko tētahi o te hunga iti rawa te mōhiotanga. I te tau 1860, i puta te ingoa o Scott Gibson me te ingoa o tana wahine a Erihapeti i roto i te tatauranga o Washington DC, a, i whakaatuhia e te raarangi taone ko Mathew Brady te kaimahi. I heke mai a Gibson ki Amerika me Alexander Gardner, no Scotland hoki ia. Ko te haerenga tuatahi a Gibson ki te mara i te wa i haere tahi ai ia me George N. Barnard ki te pakanga o Bull Run i te Maehe 1862. I mahi tahi ia ki a Gardner i Gettysburg, i mahi tahi hoki ki a ia i Sharpsburg, engari ko te taonga nui rawa atu a Gibson ko te maha o nga whakaahua i tangohia e ia i a ia i te peninsula o Virginia, ina koa ko tana whakaahua whakamiharo, he whakaahua whakahirahira mo nga tupapaku i Savage Station, Virginia
He aha? He maha nga tau i muri i te pakanga, i mua i te kooti i whakatau i te whakawa a Gibson i te tau 1868 mo tana hoa pakihi, a Mathew Brady (i whakawakia hoki e Gibson a Gardner), i nui tana taurewa i te Whare Taonga o Brady i Washington, i riro ia ia (50%) me te whakahaere mai i te Mahuru 1864, i wehe atu ki Kansas me te moni, kaore ano kia rangona.
