This mod changes the layout of the Person Profile in several ways, with the intent of making it easier to read. For example,

1. It moves some the profiled person's events below the person's Parent and Family data,
2. Adds headings (e.g. Parents, Family or Families, Media, Event Map) above each block of data, and
3. Moves 'metadata' (e.g. the personID, date of last change, and links to the Group Sheet and Family Chart) into headings.

It makes numerous additional changes, some of which are controlled by mod options. See the Wiki article for details.

Regiment History: Fourteenth Cavalry KENTUCKY (3-YEARS) Fourteenth Cavalry. -- Col., Henry C. Lilly; Lieut.-Col., Andrew Herd; Majs., Joseph W. Stivers, Alfred Smith, John C. Eversole, Robert T. Williams. The organization of this regiment was begun in the summer of 1862, the companies being promptly recruited in the counties of Estill Owsley, Bath, Montgomery, Clark, Madison, Rockcastle and Powell. They assembled at Mt. Sterling in July, but before any organization had been effected, or arms obtained the Confederate forces under Gen. Kirby Smith came into the state. The fighting which took place at Big Hill and Richmond caused the unarmed men of the regiment to abandon their camp at Mt. Sterling and for a time the organization was practically disbanded, though some of the men were held together and fought against Morgan at Brookville, Ky., as he retreated from Augusta, in September. After the Confederates left the state the men of the regiment reassembled at Mt. Sterling, where four companies -- A, B, C, and D -- were organized and mustered into service Nov. 6, and the regiment was completed in Feb. 1863, the other companies being mustered in at Irvine Feb. 13. The services of the regiment were almost entirely in eastern Kentucky. In Jan. 1863, Maj. Stivers, with 150 men of the regiment, dashed upon a band in Powell county, captured its leader and 11 men, and took their horses, guns, etc. The regiment was engaged in numerous skirmishes, and was continuously marching. Among its battles was the one at Dutton's Hill in Pulaski county, near Somerset, when Confederate Gen. Pegram, with about 2,500, was attacked by the Federal troops under Gen. Gillmore. It also went on the East Tennessee campaign under Gen. Burnside in Sept. 1863, and participated in the hardships and dangers of that campaign. The 1st battalion was mustered out Sept. 6, 1863, and the remainder of the regiment in March 1864. Source: The Union Army, vol. 4, p. 356
