Re: Resaca Battlefield
I thought it got saved last year and was in the process of becoming a state park. I guess i was mistaken , How sad. Jonesboro battlefield is having problems a well. A funeral home is trying to build on a portion of the battlefield. I guess old Pat was right when he said,

Re: Resaca Battlefield
The property that will become a state park is on the west side of Interstate 75.
The property mentioned above, where the reenactment is held, is on the east side of the Interstate.
go to the website above for maps of the state park area.

Re: Resaca Battlefield
Tony, thanks for the clarification. Being so close to, and involved with the battle site, I am glad you shed light (and links) on this issue. I truely do hope that the Chitwood Farm area is preserved in some manner. My direct ancestor was in Brown's Tennessee brigade basically holding the line right off of Dalton Hwy on the land in question. Another distant ancestral cousin was in the 20th Connecticut in Coburn's Brigade.Herb Coats
