Battle of Williamsburg, VA (CWSAC – Major Battle – Inconclusive)

Peninsula Campaign
First Corinth Campaign
Confederate Evacuation of New Mexico

Kentucky. Skirmish at Lockridge Mills near Dresden.

Louisiana. USS Calhoun, Lieutenant Joseph E Dehaven, captured the schooner Rover with a cargo of bricks in Lake Pontchartrain.

New Mexico Territory. Confederate Brigadier-General Henry Hopkins Sibley reached Fort Bliss at the end of his failed invasion of the New Mexico Territory. His demoralised and starving army was strung out for fifty miles behind him. He had evaded the half-hearted pursuit of Brigadier-General Edward Richard Sprigg Canby and had lost 1,700 men in his expedition to Albuquerque and Santa Fe, most of them to non-combat causes during the retreat through the Madalena Mountains, the Sierra de San Mateo, and along the dry bed of the Palomas River.

Tennessee. Skirmish at Lebanon involving Union Brigadier-General Ebenezer Dumont.

Virginia. Reconnaissance to Culpeper Court House ended.

Virginia. Incidents at Brandy Station, Columbia Bridge Franklin, and Princeton.

Virginia. A boat from USS Corwin, Lieutenant Thomas S Phelps, captured the sloop Water Witch, which had been abandoned by the Confederates the previous day above Gloucester Point.

Virginia. US President Abraham Lincoln, with Secretaries Edwin McMasters Stanton and Salmon Portland Chase, proceeded to Hampton Roads on the steamer Miami to evaluate operations on the Virginia peninsula. During the five days he remained in the area, the President observed gunboat operations in the James River and the bombardment of Sewell’s Point by the blockading squadron.

Virginia. Union Major-General George Brinton McClellan ordered Brigadier-General William Buel Franklin’s division to board transport ships on the York River in an attempt to land and cut off the Confederate retreat from Yorktown. It took two days just to board the men and equipment onto the ships but McClellan had high hopes for his turning movement and planned to send further divisions under Brigadier-General Fitz John Porter, Brigadier-General John Sedgwick, and Brigadier-General Israel Bush Richardson by river to join Franklin. Their destination was Eltham’s Landing on the south bank of the Pamunkey River across from West Point, a port on the York River, which was the terminus of the Richmond & York River Railroad. From the landing, it was about five miles south to the small town of Barhamsville, a key intersection on the road to New Kent Court House. McClellan expected to outflank or even cut off the Confederate army retreating from Yorktown.

Williamsburg, Virginia, also known as Fort Magruder. Nearly 41,000 Union and nearly 32,000 Confederate troops were engaged in a rearguard action following the Confederate retreat from Yorktown. Union Brigadier-General Joseph Hooker’s division (1st Division, III Corps) encountered the Confederate rearguard of Major-General James Longstreet’s division, which had occupied some old earthworks midway between Halfway House and Williamsburg.
Slowed by rain and heavy mud, Hooker’s division was in the lead of the Union advance. They assaulted Fort Magruder and a line of rifle pits and smaller fortifications that extended in an arc south-west of the fort but were repulsed. Confederate counterattacks directed by Longstreet threatened to overwhelm Hooker’s division, while he waited for the main body of the army to arrive in support. Hooker had expected Brigadier-General William Farrar Smith’s 2^nd Division of IV Corps, marching north on the Yorktown Road, to hear the sound of battle and to come in on his right flank in support. However, Smith had been halted by Major-General Edwin Vose Sumner more than a mile away from Hooker’s position. Sumner was concerned that the Confederates would leave their fortifications and attack him on the Yorktown Road. Longstreet’s men did leave their fortifications, but they attacked Hooker, not Smith or Sumner. The Confederate brigade of Brigadier-General Cadmus Marcellus Wilcox applied strong pressure to Hooker’s line. Confederate counterattacks directed by Longstreet threatened to overwhelm Hooker’s left flank until Brigadier-General Philip Kearny’s division (2nd Division, III Corps) arrived in the late afternoon to stabilise the Union position. Kearny pushed the Confederates off the Lee’s Mill Road and into the woods and abattis of their defensive positions. Sharp fire-fights continued until late in the afternoon.
Confederate Major-General Daniel Harvey Hill counter-marched his division to reinforce Longstreet and arrived on his left flank. Smith’s Union division (2/IV) finally took up the fight opposite Hill about noon. While Hooker continued to confront the Confederate forces in front of Fort Magruder,
Brigadier-General Winfield Scott Hancock’s 1^st Brigade of Smith’s division marched a few miles past the Union right and crossed Cub Creek at the point where it was dammed to form the Jones’ Mill pond. They quickly occupied two abandoned redoubts and began firing on Longstreet’s left flank around noon. Hill, commanding Longstreet’s reserve, had previously detached a brigade under Brigadier-General Jubal Anderson Early to the grounds of the College of William and Mary. Hearing the sounds of Union artillery, Early and Hill hurried in that direction. Splitting his command, Early led two of his four regiments (the 24^th Virginia Infantry and 38^th Virginia Infantry) through the woods but without performing adequate reconnaissance. They found that they had emerged not on the enemy’s flank but directly in front of Hancock’s guns, placed in the two redoubts. Early led the 24^th Virginia in a futile assault and fell wounded.
Hancock had been ordered repeatedly by Sumner to withdraw his command back to Cub Creek but he used the Confederate attack as an excuse to hold his ground. As the 24^th Virginia charged, Hill emerged from the woods leading one of Early’s other regiments, the 5^th North Carolina Infantry. He ordered an immediate attack before realising the difficulty of his situation. Hancock’s 3,400 infantrymen and eight artillery pieces significantly outnumbered the two attacking Confederate regiments, which had fewer than 1,200 men and no artillery support. Hill called off the assault after it had begun and then Hancock ordered a counterattack. The North Carolinians suffered 302 casualties, the Virginians lost 508. Union losses were about 100 men.
At about 2pm, Union Brigadier-General John James Peck’s brigade (from 1^st Division, IV Corps), arrived to support and extend the right of Hooker’s line, which had been pushed back from the cleared ground in front of Fort Magruder into the abattis and heavy woods about 600 to 1,000 yards from the Confederate fortifications. The morale of Hooker’s troops had been affected terribly by the loss of Captain Charles H Webber’s Battery H 1^st US Light Artillery and Captain Walter M Bramhall’s 6^th Battery New York Light Artillery. Peck’s arrival on the field and his brigade’s recovery of the guns of Bramhall’s battery came at a critical moment for Hooker’s division, which was on the verge of retreat.
The costly defence of Williamsburg delayed the Union pursuit and allowed the bulk of the Confederate army to continue its withdrawal toward Richmond during the night. Union losses were reported as between 2,239 and 2,283 out of 40,768 engaged (456, killed, 1,410 wounded and 373 missing; Confederate losses were 1,560 to 1,703 out of 31,823 engaged.
