Stoneman’s Raid in Virginia and North Carolina

Alabama. Reconnaissances from Huntsville to New Market and Maysville began.

Alabama. The Union lines of investment were completed at Fort Blakely and Spanish Fort by Union Major-General Frederick Steele.

California. Expedition from Camp Bidwell to Antelope Creek began.

Florida. Skirmish at Newport Bridge,

Louisiana. Expedition to French Settlement and the Hermitage ended.

Maryland. Confederate General Robert Edward Lee sent Captain T Fitzhugh with a detachment of 27 raiders from the 5th Virginia Cavalry to attempt the capture a Union supply vessel, and to transport the desperately needed supplies to Lee’s men in the trenches around Petersburg and Richmond. Unable to capture the Eolus, Titan, or the Highland Light, Fitzhugh’s men, disguised as wood choppers, boarded and seized the steamer Harriet De Ford in the Chesapeake Bay, thirty miles below Annapolis. Moving from Fair Haven, Maryland, up the Chesapeake Bay, Fitzhugh heard gunfire around Petersburg, which turned out to be the sound of Union troops celebrating their victory. Fitzhugh attempted to get the supply ship through but when a pilot took the steamer into Dimer’s Creek, Virginia, it went aground several times. A Union naval detachment under Lieutenant-Commander Edward Hooker found the Harriet De Ford trapped in Dimer’s Creek, where it had been burned. Some of the cargo had been thrown overboard to lighten the ship and the remainder was salvaged with the help of local farmers before the torch was put to the steamer.

North Carolina. Incident on the Neuse River.

North Carolina. A Union naval expedition under Commander William Henry Macomb continued up the narrowing Chowan River and its tributaries to prepare for the northward advance of the armies of Major-General William Tecumseh Sherman. He reported that he had reached the Meherrin River. USS Shokokon landed troops in Winton to secure the return route of the fleet.

North Carolina. Confederate Colonel J N Whitford of the 76^th North Carolina Infantry sent a few detachments on a mission to destroy any Union ships on the Neuse River. They found and burned the Union steamer USS Mystic near Maple Cypress. Whitford’s men also discovered and burned another Union transport loaded with commissary stores near Cowpen Landing.

South Carolina. Expedition from Charleston to the Santee River began.

South Carolina. Expedition from Georgetown to Camden began.

Tennessee. Republican William G Brownlow assumed office after being elected as the first loyal governor of a seceded state.

Virginia. The Union V Corps of Major-General Charles Griffin arrived and deployed across the railroad southwest of Amelia Court House. The Union II Corps was following close behind them, and VI Corps was also expected to arrive before nightfall. This force was more than adequate to block the Confederate escape route towards Burkeville. Union Major-General George Gordon Meade was aware that the Confederates had halted near Jetersville. His own infantrymen were fatigued from trying to keep up with Major-General Philp Henry Sheridan’s cavalry, so he postponed any attacks until the morning. Further behind Meade, Lieutenant-General Ulysses Simpson Grant reached Nottoway Court House with Major-General Edward Otho Cresap Ord and his XXIV Corps. Sheridan was bitterly frustrated at Meade’s prevarication and complained directly to Grant. Grant rode the twelve miles from Nottoway with a small escort of cavalry to investigate the situation with Meade. By the time Grant joined Meade, it was too late to overrule Meade’s orders to rest.

Amelia Springs, Virginia, also known as Jetersville, Painesville, or Paine’s Cross Roads. The foraging parties and commissary officers of Confederate Robert Edward Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia acquired only small quantities of food by foraging in the country surrounding Amelia Court House. The region had already been scoured during the long siege of Petersburg and little remained for the local population let alone providing a surplus for the starving soldiers. The column of Lieutenant-General Richard Stoddert Ewell arrived at Amelia Court House during the morning, so Lee resumed the march westwards, hoping to find provisions at Farmville, which was twenty-five miles distant. Before departing, the army abandoned a third of its 200 guns and 1,000 wagons in order to increase the pace and to gain a head start after the enforced halt at Amelia. It was hoped to send on the abandoned ordnance and transportation later by rail but the prospects for success in that venture were poor. The column reformed with Lieutenant-General James Longstreet’s men in the lead and Major-General John Brown Gordon’s force as the rear guard. The less organised elements under Lieutenant-General Richard Heron Anderson and Ewell were in the middle of the column. The exhausted cavalry of Major-General Fitzhugh Lee ranged ahead on either side of the Richmond & Danville Railroad.
Fitzhugh Lee’s cavalry encountered Union cavalry five miles from Amelia near Jetersville. This was only twelve miles from the vital railroad crossing at Burkesville, where the Richmond & Danville Railroad intersected with the Southside Railroad leading to Lynchburg. Longstreet deployed infantry to support the cavalry, which was soon engaged in a running battle. By 2 pm, it was learned that the entire Union V Corps was around Jetersville, and the Union II Corps was fast approaching. The Confederate line of march southwards was now strongly blocked at Burkesville and Lee assumed that the supplies stored there would either be lost or diverted. Lee changed the direction of retreat from southwest to westwards, cutting north of the Burkeville crossing towards Farmville, where rations from Lynchburg could be brought along the Southside Railroad. Farmville was five miles further than Burkeville. The roads and maps were poor, but Lee had no alternative but to march overnight in the hope of supplies being gathered twenty miles away. The army resumed its march near sundown.
Union Brigadier-General Henry Eugene Davies’ cavalry brigade, from Major-General George Crook’s division, advanced from Jetersville towards Amelia Court House to determine the Confederate line of march. At Painesville, between four and seven miles from Jetersville, the 1^st Pennsylvania Cavalry routed a train of 200 wagons guarded by Confederate Brigadier-General Martin Witherspoon Gary’s cavalry brigade, capturing a gun and at least 300 prisoners. Davies went on further to burn 200 more wagons, and captured five more guns and 320 men, plus teamsters and animals. Confederate cavalry under Gary, Major-General Fitzhugh Lee, and Brigadier-General Thomas Lafayette Rosser assaulted the Union cavalry under Crook as they returned from burning the Confederate wagons at Painesville. Davies was reinforced by Colonel John Irvin Gregg’s brigade and held out easily. The running fight started again north of Amelia Springs and pushed through and beyond Jetersville. The Army Headquarters records of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia were reported to be destroyed in the actions around Jetersville. Total casualties were reported as 250.
