The correct answer is the Battle of Shiloh.

The Battle of Shiloh took place on April 6th and 7th of 1862. This battle took place in Hardin County Tennessee. This was ultimately a Union victory but the casualties on both sides were catastrophic. This was the bloodiest battle in American Civil War history besides the Battle of Antietam.
