When was the Attack on Fort Sumner?

April 12, 1861, if you're talking about "Fort Sumter" in South Carolina. If you really mean Fort Sumner, the one in Easter New Mexico, the only real attack to occur there was when Billy "the Kid" Bonney was ambushed by Pat Garrett, on July 14, 1881. and yeah! This is weird! Although several states seceded from the Union between November 6, 1860 when Lincoln was elected and March 12, 1861, when Lincoln took office, the cannons didn't start firing until April 12, when southern forces responded to the refusal of US troops to cease their illegal occupation of Fort Sumner in the sovereign state of South Carolina.
