African Descent vs. Colored
Hey Adam.
I noticed that you have moved and or changed the name of all of the Arkansas Union Regiments of African Descent. I struggled with this a little when I created these articles. It is my understanding, from viewing the units recorded on Fold3 an other sources, that the official nomenclature for these units when they were created was X Regiment, Arkansas Volunteer Infantry, (African Descent). Later, the units lost their state designation and they were all re-designated a part of the United States Colored Troops. Therefore I think it is mixing terms to use the designation (colored) with the state designation as you have done here 2nd Arkansas Infantry Regiment (Colored). Am I missing something?
