I know  that there were 6 Union and 5 Confederate units from Maryland [my 
home state]  at Gettysburg that faced each other at Culp's Hill [where the MD 
State  monument is located]...but I've been unable to identify these  units....

I'm not sure where to look....
Bob,
 
On the Union side there was:
 
1st Maryland, Potomac Home brigade
