Veteran - U.S. States Army - 13th Regiment of Infantry 1885-1890

Military Service dates: 06 Jun 1885 - 05 June 1890

13th Regiment of Infantry

Fort Supply was established in late 1868 for the winter campaign against the Plains Indians in western Indian Territory. The military presence was felt for the next twenty-five years as soldiers patrolled the region in an effort to contain the tribes and keep out trespassers. Buffalo hunters, timber and horse thieves, whiskey traders, and boomers were a continual threat to stability in Indian Territory. Troops escorted cattle drives and protected the stage coaches, freight haulers, and travelers as they moved along the trails. Fort Supply was closed in 1894.

Eldest son of Miles & Annie Byrne

Late residence: 16 Madison Street, Baltimore, Md.
