September 20 1864 Tuesday
Siege of Petersburg
Sheridan’s Shenandoah Valley Campaign
Hood’s Operations in Northern Georgia
Price’s Missouri Raid
Forrest’s Third Tennessee Raid
USA. Philip Henry Sheridan was promoted to Brigadier-General in the US Regular Army in recognition of his successes in the Shenandoah Valley. The promotion also confirmed his authority in command of the Middle Military Division. He now ranked thirteenth among all officers of the US Regular Army. By comparison, he ranked only fifty-third among officers of the US Volunteers.
Alabama. Confederate Major-General Nathan Bedford Forrest’s expedition reached Tuscumbia, where he unexpectedly met his rival Major-General Joseph Wheeler. Wheeler’s cavalry was exhausted from hard service after their own extensive raid through middle Tennessee and their strength had declined from 4,500 to about 2,000 men. Confederate Brigadier-General Philip Dale Roddey was transferred to contribute his brigade to reinforce Forrest’s command up to a strength of 4,500 men. Forrest expected to add a further 1,000 men from the command of Colonel William Hicks Johnson when he crossed the state line from Mississippi. He also hoped to pick up along the way many of Wheeler’s stragglers who had lost their horses.
Georgia. Incident Jonesboro.
Georgia. Skirmish at Cartersville.

Virginia. Skirmish at Cedarville.
Virginia. Union Major-General Philip Henry Sheridan pursued the retreating Confederate army of Lieutenant-General Jubal Anderson Early towards a new defensive position at Fisher’s Hill near Strasburg. Sheridan crossed Cedar Creek with two corps during the evening, while his third corps was held in reserve. The advance guard moved two miles south of Strasburg where they discovered the Confederates in familiar and formidable defensive positions. Sheridan decided to exploit his numerical superiority to attempt the annihilation of Early’s Confederates in their fastness. He planned to exploit the presence of two valleys created by Massanutten Mountain (Luray valley to the east and the main Shenandoah Valley to the west).
Early occupied a line four miles long between the North Fork of the Shenandoah River west of Massanutten Mountain to Little North Mountain, which was an outlying spur of the Alleghenies. With their flanks anchored securely on river and mountain, Early’s men lined the southern bank of a boggy stream called Tumbling Run. Reduced to about 10,000 men, Early was forced to detach Major-General Fitzhugh Lee and two of his three cavalry brigades to block the pass which ran midway through Massanutten Mountain from Luray. Early’s left was held by the dismounted cavalry division of Brigadier-General Lunsford Lindsay Lomax, which had just arrived from wrecking the railroads around Martinsburg, fifty miles to the north.
