Captain John H. Damron was in the 1st Texas Cavalry, Col. Peter Hardeman's Arizona Brigade and served in Indian Territory and Arkansas. The 1st Texas Cavalry was assigned to Brig. Gen. Richard M. Gano's Brigade in Indian Territory. Gano's Brigade engaged the 1st Kansas Colored Infantry at the second battle of Cabin Creek, I.T. and recovered $ 1.5 million in outright plunder,livestock and supplies. That was the most notible engagement the 5th Texas Partisan Rangers and the 1st Texas Cavalry was in. The units also fought battles at Massard's Prairie, and Poison Springs Arkansas. The Arizona Brigade was first mustered at Camp Peach, Colorado County near Columbus Texas with intention of going back to the Arizona-New Mexico Territory and retake the region for the Confederacy. However, the 1st Texas Cavalry of Hardeman's Arizona Brigade was relocated to the Warren Supply Depot in Fannin County in 1863 to help defend against a perceived Union invasion of North Texas along the Texas Road from Fort Smith Arkansas and Fort Scott Kansas.

Col. Leonidas Martin's 5th Texas Partisan Rangers was mustered around Farmersville, Texas and was sent to Indian Territory and Arkansas. Martin's regiment was reassigned to Brig. Gen.

The Damron family settled near Savoy in Fannin County in 1856. John H.
