The Newburgh Raid led by Col. Adam Rankin Johnson was in July 1862.
Hines' Raid, led by Capt. Thomas Hines in June 1863 was to prepare the ground for Morgan.

General Adam Rankin (Stovepipe) Johnson, CSA

A.R Johnson's Calvary
July 18, 1862, invaded (sic Newburg),,,, or Newburgh Indiana

With the outbreak of the Civil War Johnson returned to Kentucky and enlisted as a scout under Nathan Bedford Forrest. He was one of the few members of the Fort Donelson garrison who escaped capture by evacuating the fort with Gen. John B. Floyd. His subsequent exploits as commander of the Texas Partisan Rangers within the federal lines in Kentucky earned him a colonel's commission in August 1862 and a promotion to brigadier general on June 1, 1864. One of his most remarkable feats was the capture of Newburgh, Indiana, from a sizable Union garrison with only twelve men and two joints of stovepipe mounted on the running gear of an abandoned wagon. This episode won him his nickname. When Gen. John Hunt Morgan and his men were surrounded on Buffington's Island during Morgan's famous raid, Johnson and his men escaped by swimming the Ohio River. On August 21, 1864, Johnson attacked a federal encampment at Grubbs Crossroads, near Canton in Caldwell County, Kentucky, before daylight; he was accidentally shot by his own men and became totally blind. After capture by the federals he was imprisoned at Fort Warren until the end of the war.

Thomas Hines
Rank: Captain
Unit: 2nd Kentucky Cavalry, 9th Kentucky Cavalry
Commands: "Buckner's Guides" Hines' Raid and Morgan's Raid
http://civilwar.wikia.com/wiki/Thomas_Hines

Captain Thomas Henry Hines, CSA (October 8, 1838 – January 23, 1898) was a Confederate spy during the American Civil War. A native of Butler County, Kentucky, he initially worked as a grammar instructor, mainly at the Masonic University of La Grange, Kentucky. During the first year of the war, he served as a field officer, initiating several raids. He was an important assistant to John Hunt Morgan, doing a preparatory raid (Hines' Raid) in advance of Morgan's Raid through the states of Indiana and Ohio, and after being captured with Morgan, organized their escape from the Ohio Penitentiary. He was later involved in espionage and tried to stir up insurrections against the Federal government in select Northern locales.

On June 17th, 1863 Captain Thomas Hines and 62 Confederate cavalrymen crossed the Ohio River from Kentucky into Indiana near the town of Derby, IN. Hines was under orders from General John Hunt Morgan to recon the area and find out about what support the Confederates might garner from the local populace when Morgan would invade the state of Indiana less than a month later. Hines told locals he and his men were actually part of Union General Jeremiah Boyle's command searching for deserters and acquired some of the best horses in the area for his men from locals who thought they were supporting the Union cause. http://civilwartalk.com/threads/hines-raid-into-indiana.74872/

https://books.google.com/books?id=N...onepage&q=confederates invade indiana&f=false
Following the Tullahoma Campaign he (Morgan) again received permission to enter Kentucky. On this raid from July 2 to 26, 1863, he violated Bragg's instructions not to cross the Ohio River. Crossing over into Indiana, he moved into Ohio, skirting Cincinnati which went into a panic. Pursued by cavalry and militia, he was finally captured near New Lisbon, Ohio, on July 26th - after most of his command had been taken prisoner. Confined in the Ohio State Penitentiary, he escaped on November 26, 1863. Placed in command in East Tennessee and southwestern Virginia the next year, he was surprised and killed at Greeneville, Tennessee, on September 4, 1864. http://civilwarhome.com/morganbio.htm
