The record

The ante-bellum Archibald Whitehead house stood on a hill about 200 yards west of the marker site at Johnson Rd and W. Marietta St. Cleburne used it from July 10 until July 18, when his division and the rest of Hardee's corps shifted to the Peachtree Creek valley after Johnston was relieved. The state marker (060-88, 1988) has been reported missing. The house site itself is not located.
