  • De slag bij Walkerton vond plaats op 2 maart 1864 in King and Queen County Virginia tijdens de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog. Op 28 februari 1864 vertrok brigadegeneraal met 4.000 soldaten vanuit Stevensburg, West Virginia om een raid uit te voeren op de Zuidelijke hoofdstad Richmond. Kilpatricks soldaten rukten op via de Virginia Central Railroad terwijl ze de spoorweg zelf onklaar maakten. Een voorhoede, onder leiding van kolonel (zoon van vice-admiraal , zou de verdedigingsgordel rond de stad vanuit de vijandelijke achterhoede infiltreren. Dahlgren diende ook het gevangenenkamp bij Belle Isle te bereiken en de krijgsgevangenen bevrijden. Toen Kilpatrick op 1 maart Richmond bereikte, was Dahlgren nog niet gearriveerd. Kilpatrick moest zich terugtrekken onder druk van de Zuidelijke cavalerie (nl)
