(Others were Shilow, Manassas & Gettysburg) This was the Antietam battle near Sharpsburg, Maryland and Antietam Creek which was fought on 17th Sept 1862. and was the first major battle in the American civil war to take place on Northern soil. It was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history with about 23,000 casualties
