Map #2 - Battle of Big Black River Bridge
May 17, 1863
Web Author's Notes:
This military map, drawn in 1876, shows the positions of troops at Big Black River Bridge. Note the 16th Ohio (may be mislabeled as 15th Ohio) and its brigade is shown under the control of a Col. Garrard instead of Col. Lindsey. Research is forthcoming to determine the battle order on this day.
