Credit: A Wikimedia Commons file named Cedar Creek 0800.png that has been modified by TwoScarsUp. The modification is simply a crop eliminating some of the blank portions of the file so that the viewer focuses only on the relevant troops in the battle. Map compares favorably with Map 8 on page 219 of the book "From Winchester to Cedar Creek" by Jeffry D. Wert. The original author of the Cedar Creek 0800 map is User:Hlj, and the crop was by TwoScarsUp. The original was drawn in Adobe Illustrator CS5 by Hal Jespersen.
