Strategic Positions on Nights of May 2nd and May 3rd

Now that it is no longer very relevant, here are the positions of units and brigades on the nights of May 2nd and May 3rd,  Holcomb's Brigade (1/Cav/II) arrived at Point Cedar on May 3rd, after Marple's Brigade (1/Cav/XXVI) had left. 3/II was slow on the march to Raymonds. This resulted in Maj. Gen Hobbs (CMDR II Corps) replacing Maj. Gen. William Fairbanks, the division commander, with Brig. Gen. Edward Gowan (2/3/II). Fairbanks has reportedly been given other assignments overseeing fatigue duty.
