The 9th Wisconsin was first ordered to Leavenworth, Kansas, on 22 January 1862. It participated in an expedition into Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma) in summer 1862. Afterwards, the regiment operated in Missouri and Arkansas, where it took part in: the First Battle of Newtonia, Arkansas, on September 30, 1862; the Battle of Prairie Grove, Arkansas, December 7, 1862; and the Battle of Jenkins' Ferry, Arkansas, on April 30, 1864.

The 9th Wisconsin's commander and most of the regiment's personnel mustered out on December 3, 1864, upon expiration of their term of service. The remaining personnel were reorganized into a four-company independent battalion that remained in service in Arkansas until mustered out on January 30, 1866.
