This company was formed of men all from Allegan CO and was one of several cavalry regiments including Custer's 7th, MI which made up the MI Cavalry Brigade. The Brigade saw much action in the Civil War, at the battle of Gettysburg helped keep the Confederate calvary from attacking the rear of the Union forces.

He received treatment at several hospitals and was discharged 23 June 1865 at FT Leavenworth, KS.
