Lee and Grant

Lee and Grant faced each other on the North Anna, May 23-26, 1864. Union forces crossed here and four miles to the west but found they could not dislodge Lee's center, which rested on the stream. Grant then turned east to Cold Harbor.

Marker is on Washington Highway (U.S. 1), on the right when traveling north.
