1st Colorado Cavalry
The 1st Colorado Cavalry was formed in 1862 by Territorial Governor John Evans, comprised mostly of members of the 1st Colorado Infantry and of C and D Companies of the 2nd Colorado Infantry. It was formed both to protect Colorado against incursions from the Confederate forces and to fight the Native Americans who already inhabited the area.
