Untitled[edit]

I have just finished watching an item on Iowa Public Television about the "Time Team" and its excavation and archeological work on Fort James, Hanson County, South Dakota, located on the James River near the Rockport Colony of Hutterites still living there. The 6th Iowa Volunteer Cavalry, according to their research, built this fort during 1865 and then left it for the U.S. Regular Army Cavalry to muster out in Sioux City in October, 1865.

I see no record of this service in the history of the 6th Iowa Volunteer Cavalry, neither on Wikipedia, on http://american_reflections.home.mchsi.com/sixthiowa.html or http://iagenweb.org/civilwar/books/logan/mil606.htm, the last two websites cited in the Wikipedia article.

Any information about this particular service would be welcome! Paul Uzel —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulandjoyceuzel (talk • contribs) 01:17, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
