Salem Baptist Church

Outside of Fredericksburg. May 1863
Here McLaws formed his corps and turned Sedgwick along the Plank Road to Chancellorsville where the Union hoped to relieve Hooker. There were many battles fought about old churches as they provided a ready rally point and helped to anchor a line. This is still in use today.
