Port Hudson Battlefield Louisiana

Map of battlefield core and study areas. The ABPP revised significantly the 1993 Study Area boundary. The boundary now reflects the historic curve of the Mississippi River at Port Hudson and includes the overland advance of the XIX Corps from Bayou Sara to Plains Store, where Major General Banks rendezvoused with Major General Christopher C. Augur’s division before investing the town of Port Hudson. The Core Area was adjusted to include Federal siege lines to the north, east, and south of the Confederate fortifications around Port Hudson, the Federal mortar flotilla south of Port Hudson in the Mississippi River, the Federal naval and army batteries built across the river from Port Hudson, and the naval field of fire from Farragut's flotilla against the Confederate positions northwest of Port Hudson.
