Bladensburg

 

[Gary McClellan]

Nope, while obviously Winder was at Blandesburg... it isn't what I was looking for.

What happened to Scott at Q. Heights?

What happened to Scott at Q. Heights?

Wasn't he captured and his brigade forced to surrender since the militias refused to cross the river?

 

[rahamy]

Nope, while obviously Winder was at Blandesburg... it isn't what I was looking for.

What happened to Scott at Q. Heights?

He refused to serve under a Militia officer of his own grade, so he was left with the supporting artillery.

But I'm stumped, as placing Scott's & Winders names in comparions is not something I would think of!

Burlington Heights. Both were captured in those respective battles.

 

[Gary McClellan]

Correct, though I usually see that battle referred to as Stoney Creek

Yes I also see it referred by these two names.
