They were active in monitoring the region for signs of <a href="/wiki/Confederate_States_Army" title="Confederate States Army">Confederate</a> activity during several threatened incursions, including during the <a href="/wiki/Maryland_Campaign" class="mw-redirect" title="Maryland Campaign">Maryland Campaign</a>. McConaughy's scouts and spies were particularly active in late June 1863 during the early days of the <a href="/wiki/Gettysburg_Campaign" class="mw-redirect" title="Gettysburg Campaign">Gettysburg Campaign</a>, when they shadowed oncoming enemy <a href="/wiki/Cavalry" title="Cavalry">cavalry</a> and, later, the main <a href="/wiki/Infantry" title="Infantry">infantry</a> columns. McConaughy gave this vital information to the local military commander, <a href="/wiki/Major_(United_States)" title="Major (United States)">Maj.</a> <a href="/wiki/Granville_O._Haller" title="Granville O.

Couch</a> and Governor <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Curtin" class="mw-redirect" title="Andrew Curtin">Andrew Curtin</a> in <a href="/wiki/Harrisburg,_Pennsylvania" title="Harrisburg, Pennsylvania">Harrisburg</a>. McConaughy stayed in Gettysburg during the Confederate occupation in early July, still rendering service to the Federal soldiers. Following the battle, Col. <a href="/wiki/George_H._Sharpe" title="George H. Sharpe">George H. Sharpe</a> wrote a letter to McConaughy on behalf of Maj. Gen. <a href="/wiki/George_G._Meade" class="mw-redirect" title="George G. Meade">George G. Meade</a>, formally thanking him for the critical information on Confederate troop movements. </p><p>The year before the Battle of Gettysburg, McConaughy had envisioned a Soldiers' Cemetery as part of Evergreen Cemetery. At the time, only two Gettysburg men had been killed in combat, so there was not enough support from the community to fund the project. In the days after the battle, he ordered <a href="/wiki/Elizabeth_Thorn" title="Elizabeth Thorn">Elizabeth Thorn</a>, wife of cemetery caretaker Peter Thorn (who was off serving in the army) to bury nearly one hundred soldiers' bodies in Evergreen Cemetery. Within six weeks, McConaughy initiated efforts to form a National Cemetery as a central resting place for the thousands of slain Union soldiers that had been buried at widely scattered graves throughout the Gettysburg region. Having already laid the groundwork for his concept by previously talking to the adjoining landowners, McConaughy acquired purchasing rights for the 17 acres (69,000 m<sup>2</sup>) of land immediately north of Evergreen Cemetery. By doing so, McConaughy foiled rival lawyer <a href="/wiki/David_Wills_(Gettysburg)" title="David Wills (Gettysburg)">David Wills's</a> plans to purchase the land for the <a href="/wiki/Commonwealth_(U.S._state)" title="Commonwealth (U.S. state)">Commonwealth</a> of <a href="/wiki/Pennsylvania" title="Pennsylvania">Pennsylvania</a>. He began buying lots on Cemetery Hill with his own money and asked veterans to contribute financially. The National Cemetery was dedicated November 19, 1863, in ceremonies that included Lincoln's <a href="/wiki/Gettysburg_Address" title="Gettysburg Address">Gettysburg Address</a>. McConaughy soon left the presidency of the Evergreen Cemetery Association to help establish the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial Association, serving as its first president for ten years. He served as an <a href="/wiki/Electoral_College_(United_States)" class="mw-redirect" title="Electoral College (United States)">Elector</a> for Lincoln in the 1864 presidential campaign. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Postbellum_career">Postbellum career</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=David_McConaughy&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Postbellum career"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>After the war, McConaughy served as a member of the <a href="/wiki/Pennsylvania_State_Senate" title="Pennsylvania State Senate">Pennsylvania State Senate</a> for Adams and <a href="/wiki/Franklin_County,_Pennsylvania" title="Franklin County, Pennsylvania">Franklin</a> counties.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He commissioned a famous painting of the Battle of Gettysburg by artist <a href="/wiki/Peter_F._Rothermel" title="Peter F.
