Saint Charles Battlefield Arkansas

Map of battlefield core and study areas. Southeast of the town of Saint Charles, the Study Area was narrowed to the historic width of the White River. The Study Area was widened approximately 2.5 miles below the location of the Confederate batteries in Saint Charles; this is approximately where the 46th Indiana disembarked and proceeded on foot toward the town. The Core Area was revised to illustrate the firing ranges of the Union gunboats, which fired onto the river shore two miles below the Confederate batteries. The gunboats continued to fire onto the shore until they reached and attacked the batteries.
