Under C.S.A. Brigadier General Bushrod R. Johnson's Division and Colonel Adolphus Heiman's Brigade, Maney's Battery of four pieces occupied this position throughout the operations around Fort Donelson, engaging Federal artillery at various times. On February 13, 1862, when Morrison's Brigade assaulted it, the battery did effective work in repelling the attack. On February 14, anticipating another attack, one section moved down the hill and covered the approaches along the valley. On February 15, the battery assisted in the attack on the Federal lines.
