- Description:
- Greens Cut, ca. 1878. Blacks operate this cotton press as part of the process of getting cotton grown on the plantation of Moses Patterson Green ready for market. This community is located six miles north of Waynesboro on the Central of Georgia Railroad. It received its name because a railroad cut through the land owned by Mr. Green.
