Pressure from Confederate politicians who still had connections with people in western Virginia , created several plans in January of 1863 to retake western Virginia. The Confederates conducted several raids into that part of Virginia and even threatened the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Union General Joseph Hooker's activities in Virginia, however, placed any plans for western Virginia on hold.
