	Battle of Upperville - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Upperville – Hanover – Gettysburg – Hunterstown – Fairfield – Williamsport – Boonsboro – Manassas Gap
		The Battle of Upperville took place on June 21, 1863, in Loudoun County, Virginia, as part of the Gettysburg Campaign of the American Civil War.
		Upperville was significant in that Stuart's successful delaying tactics prevented Pleasonton from making an accurate assessment of the location of Lee's infantry divisions, thereby depriving the Federals of much valued intelligence of their enemy's whereabouts and objectives.

	Battle of Gettysburg - tScholars.com (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Battle of Gettysburg (July 1–3, 1863), fought in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, as part of the Gettysburg Campaign, was the bloodiest battle of the American Civil War and is frequently cited as the war's turning point.
		However, this battle, the largest cavalry engagement of the war, proved that for the first time, the Union horse soldier was equal to his Southern counterpart.
		The battle of July 1 had pitted over 25,000 Confederates against 18,000 Federals, and ranks in itself as the twenty-third largest battle of the war.

	Gettysburg Campaign - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Gettysburg Campaign was a series of battles fought in June and July 1863, during the American Civil War.
		After his victory in the Battle of Chancellorsville, Confederate General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia moved north for offensive operations in Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.

	The Battle of Upperville
		As cavalry skirmishing diminished, Stuart made the fateful decision to strike east and attempt a 3rd circuit of the Union army as it marched toward Gettysburg.
		Stuart's absence on the first 2 days at the Battle of Gettyburg is often cited as a cause for the Confederate defeat on the 3rd day.
		Ironically, it was the presence of John Buford's cavalry at Herr Ridge and their stubborn defensive retreat on the 1st day of Gettysburg that may have saved the "high ground" of Cemetery Ridge and the Round Top's for the Union army.

		The savage cavalry battles that took place WEST and SOUTHWEST of Gettysburg in the same campaign are largely forgotten.
		On its face the actions at Upperville were inconclusive, but because of them Stuart made the fateful decision to strike east and attempt a third circuit of the Union army as it marched toward Gettysburg.
		Ironically, it was the presence of John Buford's Cavalry at Herr Ridge and their stubborn defensive retreat on the first day of Gettysburg that may have saved the "high ground" of Cemetery Ridge and the Round Top's for the Union.
