The record

Williams's and Geary's divisions camped here while Ward's division moved east to Buckhead. On July 19 Geary marched southwest on today's Arden Rd to cross Peachtree Creek. Finding the XIV Corps at Howell's Mill, he crossed upstream at today's Northside Dr, and Williams followed the next day to the Peachtree Creek battlefield. Much of this area is private residential land.
