Disbanded?

G'day, the infobox says that the unit existed between 1862 and 1863, but the body of the article doesn't mention when the regiment was disbanded. Is it possible to add this in? Cheers, AustralianRupert (talk) 02:35, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added the dates of it being active. I was questioning it myself in my head if it was still active or when it was disbanded. Those dates were from the article of being in the American Civil War ... I thought they were important enough to be in the Infobox as being "active". Adamdaley (talk) 04:57, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

G'day, Adam, I've found some information on the unit here: [1] I believe that it's an electronic reproduction of Dyer's Compendium. It provides a "muster out" date of 13 June 1865. The date it provides for "organization" is 8 September 1862, though, which is inconsistent with what this article currently says (July 1862).

They are the books I am waiting on by they are a reprint (I am assuming a reprint) from 1959. Should get them next month hopefully. Adamdaley (talk) 22:39, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No worries then. Cheers, AustralianRupert (talk) 23:34, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
