Why did Cornwallis decide to take his troops and camp at Yorktown?

Cornwallis decided to take his troops north and camp at Yorktown because Cornwallis was quite tired of marching. Washington's army and himself were only hundreds of miles north. Washington thought of a plan to trap the British. His plan was to bring his army south to join Greene. So the American and French Soldiers could surround Yorktown by land. If the French navy sailed into Chesapeake Bay, French Ships could also trap the British. Finally the British Army was trapped.

What events unfolded in northern Virginia that led to the first Battle of Bull Run?

It was a Confederate retreat that was the first step that eventually brought on the first Battle of Bull Run. Troops under Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston evacuated their position at Harper's Ferry. They retreated back into the Shenandoah Valley. Johnston feared that Union troops now controlling western Virginia and Union troops to the north of Johnston might advance on him in a classic pincer movement and trap his army. Union troops under General Powel slowly advanced southward.
