They were known as Second Battalion Duryea's Zouaves and Smith's Zouaves. They served their duty at Savannah, Georgia, and at Charleston, S. C., from July until September, 1865. They were mustered out there September 1, 1865.<ref>Frederick Henry Dyer, ''A Compendium of the War of the Rebellion'', (Des Moines, Iowa: Dyer Publishing Co., 1908), as cited at ''Civil War Soldiers Sailors System'' (database on-line) at https://www.nps.gov/civilwar/soldiers-and-sailors-database.htm (accessed 2010).</ref><ref>New York State Division of Military and Naval Affairs.

| === Companies in this Regiment with the Counties of Origin ===
| |
| | |
| Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived, though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. If you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first.
