The Battle of Folck's Mill, also known as the Battle of Cumberland, was a small cavalry engagement, fought August 1, 1864, in northern Maryland, as part of the Valley Campaigns of 1864 during the American Civil War. Although the action around Cumberland was tactically inconclusive, Kelley's stand likely saved the town from being burned and greater damage being inflicted on the railroads. The stubborn resistance of Stough at the Potomac represented the first time McCausland's force had been contested since burning Chambersburg.

  • La bataille de Folck's Mill, aussi connue comme la bataille du Cumberland, est un petit engagement de cavalerie , livré le 1er août 1864, dans le nord du Maryland, dans le cadre des campagnes de la vallée de 1864, pendant la guerre de Sécession. Bien que l'action autour du Cumberland n'est pas tactiquement concluante, le combat de Kelley a sans doute sauvé la ville de l'incendie et de dégâts plus importants infligés aux voies ferrées. La résistance opiniâtre de Stough sur le Potomac est la première fois que la force de McCausland est contestée depuis l'incendie de Chambersburg. (fr)
  • De Slag bij Folck's Mill vond plaats op 1 augustus 1864 in Allegany County, Maryland als deel van de veldtochten in de Shenandoahvallei van 1864 tijdens de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog. Nadat de Zuidelijke cavalerie op 30 juli 1864 Chambersburg, Pennsylvania had geplunderd, vertrokken de Zuidelijke generaals en naar Cumberland in westelijke Maryland om de Baltimore and Ohio Railroad aan te vallen. Rond 15.00u op 1 augustus 1864 arriveerden de Zuidelijken in Folck’s Mill, ten oosten van Cumberland. Daar stonden drie regimenten en 6 stukken artillerie onder leiding van de Noordelijke brigadegeneraal de Zuidelijken op te wachten. De Noordelijke soldaten waren zonder uitzondering nieuwe rekruten. Toen de Zuidelijken arriveerden, opende de Noordelijke artillerie het vuur. Onbekend met de vijande (nl)
