Chinn Branch Valley
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: July 19, 2008
Caption: Chinn Branch Valley
Additional Description: Looking to the east of the marker at the valley between Chinn Ridge and Bald Hill, through which Chinn Branch flowed. The 90th Pennsylvania initially deployed along the crest facing west, but turned to face southwest, with it's right flank resting near the marker location. The 88th Pennsylvania deployed next to 90th, in the middle of this open field. The 94th New York deployed on the 88th Pennsylvania, further out in this field. The 26th New York had been disordered by Confederate fire, and was employed in piecemeal during this action.
