In January 1863, Union forces defended the Springfield territory during the Confederate Army’s attempts to gain supplies and high-ground access. Twelve markers placed throughout the battleground commemorate where — defenses were organized; troops gathered supplies; injured soldiers were hospitalized; and homes were burned.
