The unit was formed from volunteers from Arizona, Oklahoma, Indian Territory and New Mexico, and was therefore called the 1st Territorial Volunteer Infantry. The 1st Territorial regiment was mustered into the Federal service between July 4 and July 23, 1898, which was rather late in the conflict. The fighting would actually end less than a month later with an armistice on August 13, 1898, though the war would officially continue until December 10, 1898. The unit contained 50 officers and 1265 men.
The regiment was sent east, and by October of 1898 was stationed at Lexington, Kentucky and was assigned to the military department entitled the "Department of the Lakes."
Between February 11 and February 15, 1899, the unit was mustered out at Albany, Georgia. During its term of service, it had 6 men die of disease, and 29 men desert.

He was a listed as a part of this unit after he applied for a pension and a tombstone:
