There is no information as of yet as to which Confederate units were engaged at the battle but both
Hampton’s and Wheeler’s commands were present. Wheeler’s men had been engaged all morning so I
believe they would have been the main Confederate force fighting around the depot. Johnston had
reorganized his force after the Battle of Bentonville.
Union forces under Kilpatrick are a little easier to pin down. Participating in the charge were the 9th
Michigan, 8th Indiana (39th Indiana), Cavalry with the 2nd and 3rd Kentucky Cavalry regiments held in
reserve. The 23rd New York Independent Battery and the 10th Wisconsin Battery were deployed and
support the attack.
