This question has a "when" and a "where" making it two separate questions. I hesitate to try and "splite it" So I will answer each.

The Battle of Chancellorsville was in May of 1863. Confederate General Lee launched a surprise attack on Union forces in eastern Virginia. The Chancellorsville lay between the Confederate capitol of Richmond and Washington DC. Lee won by driving the Union forces back across the Rappahannock River. It was a costley victory as Southern General Stonewall Jackson was killed in the conflict. Civil War historians regard the battle as the most masterfull battle by Lee in the War.
