The Old Upper Road
In Washington’s diary it is documented the number of times he traveled this route & his visits to Col. Vanderburgh’s home on the Upper Road , which also served as a munitions depot. After the defeat of Burgoyne’s army, the defeated officers and their families were taken over Bull’s bridge on the Upper Road passing Col. Vanderburgh’s house to Fishkill Landing.
Marker is on Main Street (County Route 7) 0.1 miles west of Church Street, on the left when traveling west.
