Buried on George Rose Farm
General Kershaw's men crossed through these buildings to attack Union troops
around the Wheatfield to the left of this picture. Two of his regiments
ascended the slope in the foreground to attack Union batteries placed on the
Wheatfield Road. The Snyder Farmhouse, which sits on the Emmitsburg Road, is in
the center background.
