"Braddock's Road"

Near this point on June 10, 1755, after nearly a month's delay at Fort Cumberland, Braddock's troops started toward Fort Duquesne to wrest it from the French. On July 9, 1755, he met his terrible death at the Monongahela.

Marker is at the intersection of Braddock Road (Maryland Route 49) and Greene Street (U.S. 220) on Braddock Road.
