4th (Gordon's) Arkansas Cavalry Regiment

I extracted this battles/engagements/skirmishes list and casualty information for the regiment in working on the Johnson County book. It is going to end up buried there and I thought I would post it on here if anyone might ever need it.
The sources are the Official Records of the War of the Rebellion, and the individual CSR's--cross-referenced with the Compendium of the War of the Rebellion.

Partial casualty returns, where available, in parenthesis [k.= killed, w. = wounded, c. = captured, w.+c. = wounded and captured. Those mortally wounded are included in the totals for killed (except at Mine Creek where they are listed as mw.). Some battles such as Fayetteville, Pine Bluff, and Marks' Mills are complete returns. Most of the others are incomplete. The Mine Creek returns show only those captured (including wounded and mortally wounded captured) by Federal troops. The other killed and wounded for Mine Creek (in fact the whole Missouri Raid) are not known. Additionally, the Compiled Service Records list 11 others captured at home or while detailed (one of who died as a POW), and 35 who died by disease or accident:
