2nd West Virginia Cavalry Regiment received a peer review by Wikipedia editors, which is now archived. It may contain ideas you can use to improve this article. |
I put the "citation needed" on the opening lede. The reference provided is not correct. If you are referring to the counties of Monroe and Putnam, those are OHIO counties, not West Virginia. I saw the same mistake on the WV in the Civil War website and I wrote to them about it just now. I also have the Mountaineers in Blue and Gray cd from the GT Moore Center with a history and map of counties, there are no counties of West Virginia included in their soldier count for the 2nd Cav. they show Putnam and Monroe Counties of Ohio. The recent edit "and was later supplemented by men from central, northeast and northwest counties of western Virginia." is not correct. Dubyavee ( talk) 06:31, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
