Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: September 17, 2007
Caption: East End of the Cornfield
Additional Description: Looking south across the cornfield, in the distance on the Avenue are the four tall monuments (from left to right the 137th Pa, 128th Pa, 104th NY, and Georgia State Monuments) in that length of the road. Initially Harstuff's Brigade was on line generally along the field's border on the left of frame, about half way down that edge. Christian's Brigade extended the line from about that halfway point to where the modern Cornfield Avenue (that did not exist at the time of the battle) comes into the picture. The charge of the 90th Pennsylvania carried them almost to the two trees in the center along the Avenue. Today, that is the location of the unique regimental monument.
