Burnside's personal and professional life come together in Sir Geoffrey Wellingham ( Alan MacNaughtan ), who is both Burnside's former father-in-law and the Permanent Undersecretary of State at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office that oversees SIS.

Predictably, Burnside's purge went nowhere, and he offered President Abraham Lincoln his resignation from command of the Army of the Potomac.

Hooker embarked on a reorganization of the army, doing away with Burnside's grand division system, which Hooker considered unwieldy ; he also no longer had sufficient senior officers on hand that he could trust to command multi-corps operations.

On March 11, Brigadier General Ambrose Burnside's command embarked from Roanoke Island to rendezvous with Union gunboats at Hatteras Inlet for an expedition against New Bern.

Both " Left Grand Division " commander Maj. Gen. William B. Franklin, who vowed that he would not serve under Hooker, and II Corps commander Maj. Gen. Edwin Vose Sumner were relieved of command, on Burnside's recommendation, in the same order appointing Hooker to command.

The IX Corps was a potential source of embarrassment or friction within the army because it was Burnside's old corps, so it was detached as a separate organization and sent to the Virginia Peninsula under the command of Brig.

Parke also held significant field commands during Burnside's North Carolina Expedition, Vicksburg and the battle of Fort Stedman as well as brief stints in command of the Army of the Potomac.

As a Confederate army under General Braxton Bragg besieged Union forces at Chattanooga, Tennessee, a detachment under the command of Lt. Gen. James Longstreet, a trusted subordinate of Robert E. Lee, was sent to Knoxville to prevent Burnside's Army of the Ohio from moving in support of Chattanooga.

However, his indiscretion in communicating to Lincoln directly about Burnside's shortcomings, compounded by the fact that Smith was a close friend of out-of-favor Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan, resulted in his losing both his corps command and his rank ; the Senate failed to confirm his nomination to major general, which expired on March 4, 1863.

General Reno was in command of both divisions in Burnside's absence.

After weeks of preparation, on July 30 the Federals exploded a mine in Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside's IX Corps sector, blowing a gap in the Confederate defenses of Petersburg, Virginia.

Finally, Lt. Col. Henry Pleasants, commanding the 48th Pennsylvania Infantry of Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside's IX Corps, offered a novel proposal to break the impasse.

Burnside's IX Corps, which accompanied the army at the start of Ulysses S. Grant's Overland Campaign, was added later.

In July 1862, Hartranft's men proceeded to Newport News, Virginia, to become part of Burnside's IX Corps, with whom they fought in the Second Battle of Bull Run and at South Mountain.

The Battle of South Mountain was fought wholly by Burnside's two corps, the IX Corps losing 157 killed, 691 wounded, and 41 missing ; total, 889.

On May 7, 1864, his brigade was called forward and smashed into Maj. Gen. Ambrose Burnside's IX Corps, which was attempting to outflank Ramseur's corps.

Along with Burnside's old IX Corps, which had been sent west with him after Fredericksburg, it was to maintain a primarily defensive position in Eastern Tennessee and Kentucky.

Named Chief of Artillery of Maj. Gen. Ambrose Burnside's IX Corps, he served at the battles of South Mountain and Antietam during the Maryland Campaign.

`` I'm General Burnside's horse, upside down '', Arlene said, sort of gaspingly, for her: even she had to breathe kind of funny when she was in that position.

She made General Burnside's horse's belly do so funny when it was upside down.

It was General Burnside's horse running in a circle.

Burnside's plan was to cross the Rappahannock River at Fredericksburg in mid-November and race to the Confederate capital of Richmond before Lee's army could stop him.

The Union Army was in a position reminiscent of the one Longstreet had harnessed at Fredericksburg to defeat Burnside's assault.

The petition for the election was started by two Pulaski County clergymen in an attempt to reverse Burnside's " moist " status.

He approved the plan of Maj. Gen. Ambrose Burnside to plant explosives in a mine shaft dug underneath the Confederate line east of Petersburg, but at the last minute he changed Burnside's plan to lead the attack with a well-trained African-American division that was highly drilled just for this action, instructing him to take a politically less risky course and substitute an untrained and poorly led white division.

The breakthrough in Burnside's problem was achieved by Pyotr Novikov and Sergei Adian in 1968.

In 1982 Ol ' shanskii was able to strengthen his results to establish existence, for any sufficiently large prime number p ( one can take p > 10 < sup > 75 </ sup >) of a finitely generated infinite group in which every nontrivial proper subgroup is a cyclic group of order p. In a paper published in 1996, Ivanov and Ol ' shanskii solved an analogue of Burnside's problem in an arbitrary hyperbolic group for sufficiently large exponents.

The marriage, which lasted until Burnside's death, was childless.

Burnside's early work was in applied mathematics.

The central part of Burnside's group theory work was in the area of group representations, where he helped to develop some of the foundational theory, complementing and sometimes competing with the work of Frobenius, who began the subject in the 1890s.

In 1897 Burnside's classic work Theory of Groups of Finite Order was published.

One famous example was General Ambrose Burnside's 1863 General Order Number 38, issued in Ohio, which made it an offence ( to be tried in military court ) to criticize the war in any way.

Furthermore, Dr. Mary Edwards Walker served as assistant surgeon with General Burnside's Union forces in 1862 and with an Ohio regiment in East Tennessee the following year ; imprisoned in Richmond as a spy, she was eventually released and returned to serve as a hospital surgeon at a women ’ s prisoner-of-war hospital in Louisville, Kentucky.

Parke then was Burnside's chief of staff in the Army of the Ohio in the defense of Knoxville.

Just that happened in 1929 to 1930 when Burnside's building was extended into the present range.

It was part of Union Army General Ambrose E. Burnside's North Carolina Expedition during the American Civil War.

* 1862 – American Civil War: President Abraham Lincoln approves General Ambrose Burnside's plan to capture the Confederate capital at Richmond, Virginia, leading to the Battle of Fredericksburg.

Troops under Maj. Gen. William T. Sherman marched to Burnside's aid, but the siege had already been lifted ; Longstreet withdrew, eventually returning to Virginia.

The divisions had been organized in 1861 ( the first, Banks ' Division of the Army of the Potomac, as early as July ) and by January, included 13 such formations in the Army of the Potomac ; two in Western Virginia ; one ( Burnside's ) in Maryland ; one ( Sherman's ) in South Carolina ; five more in the Army of the Ohio ; and one each in Missouri and Tennessee, for a total of 24 ; this total does not include multiple separate brigade-level formations, much less units in garrison at various fortifications and other posts from Maine to California.

Then he would rapidly shift his army southeast and cross the Rappahannock River to Fredericksburg, hoping that Robert E. Lee would sit still, unclear as to Burnside's intentions, while the Union Army made a rapid movement against Richmond, south along the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad from Fredericksburg.

The corps left Mississippi in August, 1863, and returned to Kentucky, where, after a short rest, it joined in Burnside's advance into East Tennessee, a movement that had already commenced.
