Col. Talbird's resignation was accepted on June 27, 1863. Stansel's promotion was made to rank from that date, probably about July 17, 1863, but was not officially recorded until June 9, 1864.

I cannot think of any Alabama mounted units in the west Mississippi area except for Wirt Adams' regiment.
