Seven Days Battles

Gaines's Mill

The hill to the south, part of the Union line, was assailed by Stonewall Jackson (with D. H. Hill) in the late afternoon of June 27, 1862, after A. P. Hill's and Longstreet's first assaults on the west had failed. Jackson's men carried the Union position at the bayonet's point, while A. P. Hill and Longstreet were also successful.

Marker is on Cold Harbor Road (State Highway 156) 0.4 miles south of Rockhill Road (County Route 619), on the right when traveling south.
