"The battle of Deserted House (or Kelly\u2019s Store) was a minor engagement during the American Civil War in southeast Virginia. Confederate forces under Brig. Gen. Roger A. Pryor crossed the Blackwater River into southeast Virginia on a foraging expedition. Maj. Gen. John J. Peck commanded the Union garrison at Suffolk. Peck organized a force to drive Pryor out of the area and assigned Brig. Gen. Michael Corcoran to its command."@en . "1,800" . "12 missing" . "CSA (Confederacy)" . "8,000" . "142 total" .
