Battle of Cedar Creek (Jacksonville)
The Battle of Cedar Creek, also known as Camp Mooney or McGirt's Creek, was a small but deadly skirmish of the American Civil War resulting in 29 casualties. It was fought March 1, 1864 between a small Confederate outpost and the 40th Massachusetts of the Union Army in current-day Jacksonville, Florida. The battle was the last engagement in the Olustee Campaign.
== Background ==
Jacksonville, Florida was occupied on and off by the Union throughout the Civil War. In February 1864 Union forces under General Truman Seymour went west out of Jacksonville to take back Florida for the Union and to recruit slaves for the Union Army. Confederate forces met the Union forces and defeated them at the Battle of Olustee near Lake City, Florida on February 20. After the battle Confederate forces were west of Jacksonville discouraging Union forces to venture out beyond their established lines.
