Map of the Ground Occupation and Defense of the Division of the U.S. Army in Virginia 1861

The Civil War was well documented and historians now have digital access to detailed records of the soldiers who enlisted in these volunteer regiments. Mapping the Civil War provides students an opportunity to learn more about the men who joined these regiments and their service during the war. The early maps record over 50 camps that were located in Arlington County. Later in the war the army stopped tracking these camps since their names and locations kept changing. The urbanization of Arlington has paved over many of these sites, but there is still time to preserve some of the remaining locations.
