The Military Road

Joseph Brant, familiar with the terrain, probably selected the place of ambush ~ where a small stream crossed the military road. The military road of 1777 was about ten rods north of the present highway.

Marker is on Rome Oriskany Road (New York Route 69) 0.4 miles east of Monument Road, on the left when traveling east.
