Seven Days Battles

Malvern Hill

Here from east to west, Berdan’s sharpshooters of Morell’s division were strung out in the afternoon of July 1, 1862. Their rapid and accurate fire harassed the Confederates as they emerged from the woods and charged up the hill.

Marker is on Willis Church Road (Virginia Route 156) just south of Carter Mill Road, on the right when traveling south.
