02C - 2nd Minnesota Cavalry

A list of known burial locations for soldiers who served in the 2nd Minnesota Cavalry, organized in the fall of 1863. The 2nd Minnesota Cavalry spent the winter of 1863-1864 on garrison duty at Minnesota frontier posts. In the summer of 1864, it joined the 8th Minnesota Infantry, the 3rd Minnesota Light Artillery, and other volunteer regiments from Iowa and Nebraska in Gen. Alfred Sully’s expedition against the Dakota. The regiment was involved in the Battle of Killdeer Mountain or Ta-Ha-Kouty in Dakota Territory in July 1864. The expedition moved as far west as the Yellowstone River before returning to Minnesota in October 1864. The Cavalry was then assigned to garrison duty for one year at small frontier posts and Forts Wadsworth, Ridgley, Abercrombie, and Ripley.
