Near here the second corps of Grant’s army camped in the winter of 1863-74. To this point came Sheridan’s cavalry, the sixth corps from Brandy Station, and the fifth corps from Culpeper. The Union Army moved hence to Germanna and Ely’s Fords on the Rapidan River, May 4, 1864, to open the Wilderness Campaign.
