After Confederate General Robert E. Lee's victory at Chancellorsville in May 1863, he led the Army of Northern Virginia west to the Shenandoah Valley and then north through Maryland into Pennsylvania, while Union General George G. Meade, who replaced General Joseph Hooker on June 28, pursued with the Army of the Potomac as Confederate cavalry under General J.E.B. Stuart disrupted Federal communications, rail lines, and supplies. The armies met at Gettysburg on July 1 in a battle neither commander had planned to fight there, and after three days the defeated Confederates retreated across the Potomac River into Virginia on July 14. Lee's second invasion of the North had begun on June 11, 1863, when General Richard S. Ewell's corps led the army north from Culpeper, moving far enough ahead of Union cavalry that the movement went undetected for several days. That evening, General Robert E. Rodes's division, leading Ewell's corps, camped along Hittle's Mill stream after first halting north of Flint Hill and then moving north one and a half miles because of confusion over the movements of Ewell and General Jubal A. Early's division. On the morning of June 12, Rodes resumed the march toward Chester Gap, and near Sandy Hook, now Huntly, he joined Ewell in a carriage after Ewell, who had lost a leg at the Second Battle of Manassas, caught up with the division. Ewell then informed Rodes that they would attack the Union garrisons at Winchester and Berryville simultaneously, with Rodes assigned to Berryville while Ewell and the rest of the corps moved on Winchester. On June 13, Ewell decisively defeated the Union force at Winchester, but the Berryville garrison had learned of Rodes's approach and withdrew before he arrived. After the war, Rodes's sister Lucy Rodes married John J. Reid of Woodville, a Virginia Military Institute graduate who took part in the charge of the V.M.I. Cadets at the Battle of New Market; the Reids lived in Woodville and are buried there in Saint Paul's Episcopal Cemetery.
