Battles around Lake Charles, La?
« on: February 06, 2013, 11:43:48 AM »
Does anyone have any information about CW activity around Lake Charles, La, other than Niblett's Bluff and Calcasieu Pass/Calcasieu Bend? 
 
All rumors and gossip gratefully accepted.

I'd be interested in learning about this also, as well as any of the battles/skirmishes in the SE Louisiana area, particularly in the Bayou Lafourche region.

Cleburne:  Google has many published reports and articles on the Lafourche region and its part in the Red River campaign.  Check out Shelby Foote's trilogy; most libraries have them?
