Have you wondered where the "Big Levels" is since there is a "Little Levels?"

 

Camp Union on the Great Levels was located near present-day Lewisburg, West Virginia. It was established in 1774 by General Andrew Lewis as a staging point for the Battle of Point Pleasant, which is considered to be the first major battle of the American Revolutionary War.

Camp Union was located on a large, flat area of land known as the Great Levels. This area was ideal for a military camp because it was easy to defend and had plenty of room for soldiers and their supplies. Camp Union was also located near a major crossroads, which made it easy for soldiers to come and go.

Camp Union was home to over 1,000 soldiers during its existence. The soldiers spent their time training, drilling, and preparing for battle. Camp Union was also a center of social activity for the soldiers and their families. There were dances, concerts, and other events held at the camp on a regular basis.

Camp Union was disbanded after the Battle of Point Pleasant. However, the site of Camp Union is still preserved today. It is now a popular tourist destination where visitors can learn about the history of the American Revolution and the role that Camp Union played in the war.

The Great Levels are now known as the GreenbrierValley, and Lewisburg is the county seat of Greenbrier County, West Virginia. Lewisburg is a popular tourist destination for its historic charm and beautiful scenery.
