Francisco Chavez, 1st New Mexico Infantry under the orders of General Edward Canby in 1862.
It was located near a large spring and designed to house four companies of troops. Colonel Kit Carson and four companies of New Mexico Volunteers used this fort. Carson was ordered by General Carleton to round up first the Mescalero Apache, then the Navajo and send them to Bosque Redondo. San Rafael was a stop on the Navajo's journey to and from Fort Sumner.
In 1868 the garrison and name of the fort was transferred to the former site of Fort Lyon, near Gallup.
