Hiram Dryer was born in New York. He enlisted as private in the Mounted Rifles in August of 1846. By August of 1847, during the war with Mexico, Dryer had been promoted to sergeant and was serving with Company H of the Mounted Rifles. As a Lieutenant, Dryer volunteered to carry supplies to a party of emigrants who were snowed-in, in the Cascade Mountains, in November 1853. He was engaged in an expedition against the Snake Indians from May to October 1855. By the time of the Civil War, he was a captain in the army; he was promoted to a major in 1862 and to a lieutenant colonel in 1863. He died at Fort Randall in 1867 at the age of 37.
