Newspaper publisher Charles DeMorse formed the regiment at Clarksville, Texas, in July 1862 and became its colonel. The unit defended north Texas against Native American raids until March 1863, when it was ordered to march to Indian Territory. In July 1863, the regiment fought at Honey Springs.Шаблон:Sfn In October 1863, Richard Montgomery Gano assumed command of the brigade, which was troubled by poor morale and desertions.

In early 1865, the unit was dismounted and added to an infantry division known as Walker's Greyhounds.
