Talk:Chronology of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles (Latter-day Saints)

I just finished browsing through "Chronology of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles" and fixing a few errors. I was wondering: Would it be possible to provide a historical listing of the members of the Quorum of the Twelve according to the death dates and excommunication dates set herein? Here's what I mean.

We know from the Explanatory Explanation of the Doctrine and Covenants that the first ever Quorum of the Twelve in the Church was composed of the following: Thomas B. Marsh, David W. Patten, Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball,Orson Hyde, William E. McLellin, Parley P. Pratt, Luke Johnson, William Smith, Orson Pratt, Lyman E. Johnson, and John F. Boynton.

We also know that as of November 2004-present, the Quorum is composed of the following brethren: Boyd K. Packer, L. Tom Perry, Russell M. Nelson, Dallin H. Oaks, M. Russell Ballard, Joseph B. Wirthlin, Richard G. Scott, Robert D. Hales, Jeffery R. Holland, Henry B. Eyring, Dieter F. Uchtdorf and David A. Bednar.

But what about the years in between? From one year to the next, there is no way to see exactly who was in the quorum in order of seniority with some serious backtracking. Now, maybe I'm just weird that way, but if it were up to me, I'd create such a page. I took some time today to sort through the years listed in the Chronology, and I think I could probably compose such a page if invited to do so. Thanks.
