1st Squadron, Connecticut Cavalry


 * Mustered in August 1861. The squadron was almost immediately consolidated with the Second New York, otherwise known as the "Harris Light Cavalry."  No muster-rolls or reports from these companies were forwarded to the Adjutant-General of Connecticut during all their term of service, consequently no records are now in possessionof the State from which an adequate account of their service can be obtained.
