Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Olde Ulster, 1914, Vol. 10: An Historical and Genealogical Magazine
Kingston was noted for its general training days. Camp was usually ordered to be pitched upon the northwest side of Jacob's Valley, now on the south side of Greenhill avenue near the brewery and close to the present West Shore and Wallkill Valley railroads. Here the old Twentieth and the One Hundred and Twentieth Regiments assembled and from here marched to the front in the Civil War. Here was a plain upon which to drill and perform the various evo lutions to be learned in developing the citizen into the soldier.
