They were deployed along the frontier, primarily to protect the settlers during the Sioux Uprising of 1862. ServiceCompany ABy an order of the War Department, organization of a cavalry unit began in the winter of 1861, with recruiting stations established at Yankton, Vermillion, and Bon Homme.[4] At Yankton, with Captain Nelson Miner commanding, the 98 men of Company A were mustered into service on April 19, 1862.[5][6] They first were stationed at Fort Randall under Lieutenant Colonel Pattee of the 7th Iowa Volunteer Cavalry Regiment, but detachments of the company were afterward sent to protect the settlements at Yankton, Vermillion, Sioux Falls and Brule Creek, Dakota Territory. Upon the commencement of the August 1862 Sioux uprising, Company A escorted settlers as they moved to protective stockades. Governor William Jayne also called for "every able-bodied man to arms in defense of the homes of Dakota", with 399 men responding.[7] Company BAt this time Captain Alpheus G. Fuller, an early settler in the territory, began raising a cavalry militia in Bon Homme and Charles Mix counties, the "Militia Brigade of Dakota".[8] After failing to form a company for U.S. service, the men were merged in with volunteers being organized at Elk Point, and were mustered in as Company B, on March 31, 1863, at Sioux City, Iowa, with Captain William Tripp commanding. This company was known by settlers as the "Dakota Rangers".[9] Both companies were engaged in the protection of the Dakota frontier towns, while Generals Henry H. Sibley and Alfred Sully, with regiments of infantry and cavalry from Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska, sought out the hostile Indians throughout the territory. The two companies were split into detachments for use in the several settlements. After the Civil War and Indian troubles drawing to a close in 1865, the two companies were mustered out, Company A, on May 9, 1865, and Company B on November 15, 1865. A list of soldiers gives the battalion a total of 194 soldiers.[10] EngagementsIn June 1864, the 1st Dakota Cavalry Battalion served as guard for Brigadier General Alfred Sully while he traveled to Fort Sully, Dakota Territory to rendezvous with various Companies there. Upon the completion of the brigade, the expedition left Fort Sully on June 24, 1864. On July 28, 1864, Sully's force of 2,200 soldiers encountered a camp of over 5,000 Sioux warriors, and the Battle of Killdeer Mountain commenced. The United States forces lost 5 men killed and 10 men wounded in the battle. On August 13–15, 1865, 24 soldiers in Company B of the 1st Dakota participated in the Battle of Bone Pile Creek against Native American warriors near present-day Wright, Wyoming. The detachment suffered two casualties, Private Anthony Nelson and Private John Rouse both Killed in action.[11] See also
