* 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.

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.

Hooker derided Burnside's plan to assault the fortified heights behind the city, deeming them " preposterous ".

`` 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 former command, the IX Corps, was transferred to the Virginia Peninsula, a movement that prompted the Confederates to detach troops from Lee's army under Lt. Gen. James Longstreet, a decision that would be consequential in the upcoming campaign.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

Crook led his brigade at the battle of South Mountain and near Burnside's Bridge at the battle of Antietam.

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.

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.

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.

They also fought at the Battle of Antietam, where Hartranft led its famous charge across Burnside's Bridge, suffering 120 casualties.

The Battle of Antietam, by Kurz & Allison, depicting the scene of action at Burnside's Bridge

In early November 1863, Lt. Gen. James Longstreet, with two divisions and about 5, 000 cavalry, was detached from the Confederate Army of Tennessee near Chattanooga, Tennessee, to attack Maj. Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside's Union Department of the Ohio troops at Knoxville.

Potter was wounded at Antietam while participating in Burnside's attack on the Confederate right flank.

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.

Jeffry D. Wert described Burnside's relief after Fredericksburg in a passage that sums up his military career:

As political intrigue swept the Union Army after Fredericksburg and the infamous Mud March, Franklin was alleged to be a principal instigator of the " cabal " against Burnside's leadership.

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.

Burnside's two other divisions, made up of white troops, would then move in, supporting Ferrero's flanks and race for Petersburg itself.

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.

In the afternoon, Union Maj. Gen. Ambrose Burnside's corps entered the action, capturing a stone bridge over Antietam Creek and advancing against the Confederate right.

After the culmination of Burnside's North Carolina Expedition little attention had been given to North Carolina by the Confederate Army.

At the Battle of Antietam, Benning's brigade was a crucial part in the defense of the Confederate right flank, guarding " Burnside's Bridge " across Antietam Creek all morning against repeated Union assaults.

Burnside's Bridge became a major focus of combat as Union forces under General Ambrose Burnside repeatedly tried to capture the bridge from Confederate forces guarding the crossing from a high bluff overlooking the creek.
