Advance of Greene
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: February 9, 2008
Caption: Advance of Greene's Division
Additional Description: Looking southwest from stop three. The Smoketown Road runs through the trees on the far left. The New York State monument can be seen in the distance through those trees. Following the line of telephone poles down the Smoketown Road is the area of the Dunker Church. Two of Greene's brigades broke through the East Woods here. Tyndall's advanced from what is today the Cornfield Avenue (did not exist at the time of the battle). Stainrook's was on his left, centered on the Smoketown Road. Both brigades advanced to the high ground near where the New York Monument stands today.
