The old Marietta Rd. joined the Sandtown Rd. here -- 1864.
June 17-19. Geary's (2d) Div., 20th A.C., supporting
13th N.Y. & Pa. E batteries, were N. of rd.
& Cox's (3d) Div. 23d. A.C., supporting
1st Ohio Bat. D. [US] were S. of rd. -- in area
from Darby house to Mud Cr.

The artillery duel with Cleburne [CS] on high ridge E. of creek &
Geary's [US] rain-soaked infantry in flooded area next to
stream, are a part of the annals.
