Western Virginia Campaign and Hatteras Inlet Action
In early October 1861 Union forces under Reynolds attacked Jackson at Greenbrier River while at Hatteras Inlet a combined operation failed after the Fanny was captured and Brown retreated. The clashes helped shift control west of the Alleghenies as Lee recalled to Richmond and the blockade gradually strengthened.
