Darrell,
Since the 2nd Cherokee Mounted Volunteers was an Indian Territory unit and Livingston's 1st Battalion, Cherokee Spikes, Missouri Cavalry was a Missouri unit, this posting would be more appropriate on the Indian Territory in the CW Message Board at http://history-sites.com/mb/cw/itcwmb/ and/or the Missouri in the CW Message Board at http://history-sites.com/mb/cw/mocwmb/ .
Thanks,
Jim Martin
