The battle of Somerset (or Dutton's Hill) was a battle fought on March 31, 1863 during the American Civil War. General John Pegram led a Confederate cavalry raid into central Kentucky which was defeated by Union forces under General Quincy A. Gillmore. ==Background== In early 1863 Brigadier General John Pegream led a cavalry raid into Kentucky in the vicinity of Lexington. Brigadier General Quincy A. Gillmore sought permission from Department of the Ohio commander, Major General Ambrose E. Burnside to move against Pegram. Although Gillmore had gained a reputation in artillery and engineering service Burnside nevertheless authorized Gillmore to lead a mixed force of cavalry and mounted infantry.〔Lloyd's Battle History of the Great Rebellion (page 205 )〕
