1. Chancellorsville Campaign Marker
Jackson's most direct route toward the enemy's flank lay in the right turn onto the Brock Road here. Instead of following that route he turned left, or southward, proceeded a quarter of a mile, and then turned right into a parallel woods road. This brought him back into the Brock Road a couple of miles northward.
