By the mid-nineteenth century, settlers were replacing the fur traders, and the military came to protect this Euro-American migration to the West.
In 1863 General Henry H. Sibley led an army across Dakota Territory, pursuing a group of Dakota who were believed to have participated in the Dakota Conflict of 1862.
General Alfred Sully and the 2,000 soldiers in his command were also part of the military reprisal following the Dakota Conflict of 1862.
