Where did the Potomac army camp at in 1862?
Before the Seven Days Campaign near Richmond the army was encamped around Washington. Initially, the army was transported to Fort Monroe, Virginia and camped in that area before moving up the Peninsula. After the Seven Days the Army retreated to Harrison's Landing, east of Richmond on the James River. The army returned to the Washington area, returning first to camps along Aquia Creek, north of Fredericksburg. It was on the march during the Second Manassas and Antietam campaigns. After the battle of Antietam the army was camped around Williamsport, Maryland. Additional camps were in the Frederick, Maryland area. After a brief stay at Williamsport the Army of the Potomac camped near the Potomac at Knoxville, Maryland and was then on the move again during the Fredericksburg Campaign at the end of the year. Keep in mind the Army was far too big to camp all at a single location because of the need for drinking war and forage for animals. Also, security demanded keeping detached units at scattered locations.
