Background:

Stewart reports that the battalion was absorbed by the 11th Reserve Battalion to provide reinforcements for the Canadian Corps in the field. Meek notes that the unit served in Canada from February 3, 1916 to May 3, 1917 and in England from May 14, 1917 until it was disbanded on that date. Meek confirms that the unit was absorbed by the 11th Reserve Battalion. Love agrees.

Nicholson has no reports on the 200th Infantry Battalion as it did not serve as an active unit.

Library and Archives Canada does not show any records related to the 200th Canadian Infantry Battalion
