Add PhotosConfederates stationed at Camp Bartow took part in Gen. Robert E. Lee's failed September assault of the fortress on Cheat Mountain, 12 miles west.
On October 3, 1861, nearly 5,000 Union troops under Gen. Joseph Reynolds attacked 1,800 Confederates here in the Battle of Greenbrier River. Reynolds retreated to Cheat Mountain after a spirited artillery duel. Gen. Jackson's defenders received a commendation from the Confederate War Department for their victory.
Confederates at Camp Bartow suffered greatly from disease. By late November, the Southern army abandoned these works and withdrew nine miles east to Camp Allegheny, where they endured a horrible winter in the mountains.
