I assume by that is meant the people who plundered & burned their way through Union cities from Chambersburg, Pennsylvania to Lawrence, Kansas.
- In West Virginia: "Pro-Confederate guerrillas burned and plundered in some sections, and were not entirely suppressed until after the war was ended."
- In Kentucky: "At the completion of his escape through the Commonwealth, Morgan claimed to have captured and paroled 1,200 enemy soldiers, recruited 300 men and acquired several hundred horses for his cavalry, used or destroyed supplies in seventeen towns, and incurred fewer than 100 casualties.[51]"
- In Missouri: "Perhaps the costliest incidents of guerrilla warfare were the Sacking of Osceola, the burning of Platte City, and the Centralia Massacre.
Among the most notorious bushwhackers were William C. Quantrill's raiders, Silas M. Gordon, William "Bloody Bill" Anderson, and a young Jesse James." - In Kansas: "a guerrilla raid by pro-slavery "bushwhackers" led by William C. Quantrill, who descended on Lawrence, a center of anti-slavery Unionist sentiment, and proceeded to sack the town, burning numerous buildings and executing about 180 men and boys"
- In Pennsylvania: "As a result of its vital role as a Federal raw material source and its proximity to the Mason–Dixon line, Pennsylvania was the target of several raids by the Confederate States Army.
These included cavalry raids in 1862 and 1863 by J.E.B. Stuart, in 1863 by John Imboden, and in 1864 by John McCausland in which his troopers burned the city of Chambersburg.[15]" - In Indiana: "Morgan continued his raid north and burned most of the town of Salem.[53]"
- In Maryland: "Frederick would later be extorted by Jubal Early, who threatened to burn down the city if its residents did not pay a ransom.[60]
Hagerstown too would also suffer a similar fate.[61] "
