Summary
DescriptionDavis' March To Rome Sign, Floyd County, Georgia.jpg
English: This sign stands at the Visitor's Center in Rome. The sign reads:
DAVIS' MARCH TO ROME
May 15, 1864. Brig. Gen. J.C. Davis' div. (14th A.C.)
(U.S. flag image) left Sugar Valley via roads west of the
Oostanaula River to outflank Johnston's forces
(Confederate flag image) retreating from Resaca.
Davis had been informed that Farmer's Bridge
on Armuchee Cr. was an Oostanaula crossing.
Learning otherwise at Floyd Springs, he reported
same to Thomas, who ordered Davis to return
to Lay's Ferry; instead, Davis kept on toward
Rome, reaching DeSoto Hill, May 17.
The river was crossed under fire, May 18, &
the Federals occupied Rome where they remained
until May 24, when their march to Dallas,
Paulding County began.
