After several skirmishes in the area, Brigadier General William S. Rosecrans led Union troops down from Clarksburg to meet Brigadier General John B. Floyd at Carnifex Ferry, where the Confederates entrenched themselves. The battle lasted for several hours, stopping when night fell. Although the Confederates had suffered minimal casualties, orders from General Lee and the strength of the Union artillery caused Floyd to retreat back across the Gauley River. The battle is considered a Union victory and was arguably contributed to the eventual withdrawal of Confederate forces from the territory that would become the state of West Virginia.","Records relating to the history of southeastern West Virginia.

Topics covered in the letters include the sizes of Confederate and Federal forces; description of the battle; respective casualties suffered by each army; and the skillful and successful Confederate retreat. The second letter also mentions Brigadier General John B. Floyd and General Lee.","The letter of 18 August 1862 was authored by J. A. Yonce, encamped near Grey Sulphur Springs, Monroe County to his sister Fannie A. Yonce, Wytheville, Virginia. Yonce writes about family members and friends; review of troops at Camp Narrows; new commanding officer; conditions in camp; and potential movement of troops into the Kanawha Valley.\nLetter of 24 July 1863 was authored by J.

After several skirmishes in the area, Brigadier General William S. Rosecrans led Union troops down from Clarksburg to meet Brigadier General John B. Floyd at Carnifex Ferry, where the Confederates entrenched themselves. The battle lasted for several hours, stopping when night fell. Although the Confederates had suffered minimal casualties, orders from General Lee and the strength of the Union artillery caused Floyd to retreat back across the Gauley River. The battle is considered a Union victory and was arguably contributed to the eventual withdrawal of Confederate forces from the territory that would become the state of West Virginia."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003e[Description and date of item], [Box/folder number], Southeastern West Virginia Historical Records, Civil War Letters and Other Material, A\u0026amp;M 2169, West Virginia and Regional History Center, West Virginia University Libraries, Morgantown, West Virginia.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"prefercite_tesim":["[Description and date of item], [Box/folder number], Southeastern West Virginia Historical Records, Civil War Letters and Other Material, A\u0026M 2169, West Virginia and Regional History Center, West Virginia University Libraries, Morgantown, West Virginia."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eRecords relating to the history of southeastern West Virginia.
