During the Gettysburg Campaign, on the afternoon of July 5th, 1863, Federal cavalry defended Smithsburg from an attack led by General J.E.B. Stuart and Confederate cavalry during their retreat from the Battle of Gettysburg. Union General H. Judson Kilpatrick’s division arrived in Smithsburg, escorting 1,360 prisoners around 9 a.m. after a night of harassing confederate wagon trains. Wet, tired, and hungry, the Federal troops received a hearty welcome from the townspeople, most of whom were staunch Unionists. Tables suddenly appeared in the streets filled with breads, jellies, special meats, and pies. Several soldiers butchered and barbecued a local farmers cow. General [George Custer]] personally enjoyed an entire chicken with all the trimmings. A local band played Union songs “Hail Columbia” and “Yankee Doodle” in the spirit of the festivities. One soldier wrote of Smithsburg saying, “It was like an oasis in a desert... a green spot in a soldier’s life.” Aware that Confederate Troops lurked nearby, General Kilpatrick ordered several of his troops to stand guard on the three hills that are so emblematic of Smithsburg today. Troops placed on the hill where [Smithsburg High School]] is now located had to “dismount a large portion of the command... to dislodge the enemy.” Eventually even cannon fire was used and several confederate shells became lodged in the homes of Smithsburg.

Local Area Info: Smithsburg, Maryland

Smithsburg is a town in Washington County, Maryland, United States. The population was 2,975 at the 2010 census. Smithsburg is close to the former Fort Ritchie army base and just west of the presidential retreat Camp David.

Smithsburg, MD was founded in 1813 by Christopher "Stuffle" Smith. Mr. Smith purchased a plot of land formerly known as "part of Shadrack's Lot." The community's development was directly influenced by factors such as migration paths, the arrival of the railroad, and advances in agricultural technology. By 1923, much of the existing village had been erected. Smithsburg was incorporated in 1846.

Smithsburg acted as a hospital town during the American Civil War in 1862, treating wounded soldiers from nearby battles at South Mountain and Antietam. On July 5, 1863, Confederate General James Stuart and Union General Kilpatrick exchanged artillery fire over Smithsburg. A cannon ball from this exchange can be found lodged in the wall of a building on Water Street. Kilpatrick continued the advance to Boonsboro, Maryland after the engagement on July 6. area.

One soldier wrote of Smithsburg saying, “It was like an oasis in a desert... a green spot in a soldier’s life.” Aware that Confederate Troops lurked nearby, General Kilpatrick ordered several of his troops to stand guard on the three hills that are so emblematic of Smithsburg today.
