This coastal area in Virginia called the Bermuda Hundred was important in that it was the beachhead from where the Union Army of the James landed in the Spring of 1864. This army's mission was to use the Bermuda Hundred peninsula as a starting point for the Union's assault on railroads and take either Richmond or Petersburg. It's location was ideal for the Union's landing.
