1st United States Lancers Regiment
editThe regiment was organized by Colonel Arthur Rankin of Windsor, Ontario[1] at Detroit, Saginaw, and St. Johns, Michigan between November 30. 1861, to February 20, 1862, and was mustered out on March 20, 1862, without seeing active service.[2]

Chandler's Horse Guard
editThe unit was organized by Major William C. Hughs at Coldwater, Michigan on September 19, 1861, and was mustered out after three months of service on November 22, 1861, as the battalion did not conform to Federal mustering regulations. The unit was remusted and reequipped, but refused to obey an order to remuster in and the unit was discontinued. 189 men served in the Horse Guard.[4]
