Which union officer drove the rebels out of the shenandoah valley?
Phil Sheridan
What confederate gave Robert E Lee a valuable assistance in 1862 by lurking union forces into the shenandoah valley while the main southern army drove mcclellan from Richmond?
This question is somewhat confusing in its' content but I will give my best answer. In the Spring of 1862 Confederate General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson while operating in the Shenandoah Valley,outwitted and defeated 3 Union forces under separate command of Gens. Shields,Banks,and Fremont. All of this was done and completed before Gen. Lee launched his attack against Gen.McClellan in front of Richmond.The two campaigns did not overlap in time. Gen. Jackson was present with the"main Southern Army"(the Army of Northern Virginia) during the Seven Days' Battles which did dislodge the Army of the Potomac from the York/James Peninsula. The short answer would be Gen. Thomas J. Jackson.
