Illinois Irish Dragoons
Unit History
Adjutant General's Report
History of this unit is not found in the Report of
the Adjutant General of Illinois.
Other sources tell us that this unit was organized in Missouri under authority of General Fremont, to be attached to the Twenty-third Illinois Infantry (Irish Brigade) as a Cavalry company. The Company was instead assigned as Company L of the Third Missouri Cavalry and later assigned as Company L to the Fifth Iowa Cavalry.
