I know of Nashville and Shiloh,TN I would have to look up more.

....I think Atlanta was 1864,I know it was later in the war

You're right dsm. The guy before that doesn't really know anything...when looking up the answers instead of knowing them there are cities listed that didn't happen in 1862 like the question asked.

Don't forget Sherman's "March to the Sea."

Cities that fell:
Atlanta (GA), Savannah (GA), Columbia (SC), and lots more.

Shiloh was not a city, it was a small country church near Pittsburg Landing on the Tennessee River.
