Yes. There was a civil war battle fought in New York. A group of Confederate Cavalry rode into New England fighting skirmishes along the way. They crossed into Canada. The Canadian Government seized their horses and guns and would not let them reenter the United States. They sat out the rest of the war living in a Canadian Hotel.

Another group of Confederate Solders tried to burn down New York City. They set a number of buildings on fire but they did not spread.
