Hey do you know what newspaper that was in? If so, you can actually go through their archives. That's always a possibility. Might not hurt to contact them, if so.
Sorry you have to mess with all this confusion! Yikes! It's difficult enough to put all the pieces back together, and then when you throw in some possible erroneous data...
At this point I would strongly suggest getting hold of the archived unit records from NARA in Maryland. This may shed new light on the subject.
