The 98th Illinois Infantry was organized at Centralia, Illinois and mustered into Federal service on September 3, 1862. [2]The regiment was converted to mounted infantry on March 8, 1863 [3] and became an element of "Wilder's Lightning Brigade", [note 1] a unit that pioneered the use of mounted infantry. [4]
At that time, the idea of a monument honoring the brigade at the Chickamauga battlefield was brought up. Wilder approved of the idea and promised to match whatever funds were raised by the brigade, with the plan to have each regiment contribute $1,000 ($34,000 adjusted for inflation) and the battery contribute $500 ($17,000 in 2025).
