[…] on July 18, 1861. I’ll get to that eventually, I promise. But for now, I have updated the Maps page with the below image of a map of that action drawn by E. Porter Alexander. Check it out. […]

Harry,
I’ve been looking for a map or relatively good description of the route that Hunter’s and Heintzelman’s divisions took from the Warrenton turnpike to Sudley ford. What I’ve found so far seems to show a vague, arcing route. I’m looking at a USGS topo map from around 1950, and whatever “wood road” they followed doesn’t seem to be shown on it. If you have any better info that you can share, I’d appreciate it.
Thanks,
Jim

Jim, I don’t know that the wood road existed 90 years later. But the route has been identified, and for more specific information regarding it you may want to check with Manassas National Battlefield Park. Ask for Jim Burgess.
