American Civil War
TWENTIETH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Here the regiment was attached to the 1st brigade, 1st division, 9th army corps. After remaining at Sharpsburg for about two weeks it moved to Pleasant Valley, Md., where it remained in camp, until about October 14th, when by a forced night march it moved to Nolan's Ford to cut off the retreat of Stuart's cavalry from Maryland, but they had already made their escape.
The 20th remained on picket duty at the ford until October 30th, when it forded the Potomac at Point of Rocks, and joined the division at Waterford, Va.
