Ironton Gap

—September 26, 1864, 2:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m. —

Ironton Gap, about a quarter mile wide, separates Shepherd and Pilot Knob mountains and divides Arcadia Valley into northern and southern halves. Through the gap passed the road which connected the villages of Pilot Knob and Ironton. Cabell's brigade, positioned in the center of the rebel line, launched three charges on Ft. Davidson from Knob Creek, which flows through the gap.
