Devil's Den at Gettysburg were over 100 year olds

Not to be too technical, but they would have had to be in excess of 142 years old just to be saplings at the time of the battle. 100 years old just makes them 1905 seedlings.

but they would have had to be in excess of 142 years old ... and bullet proof. Look at old photo's and you don't see much timber...or even brush from the sheer number of volleys shot through the area.
