2/5th Devonshire Regiment

I have found several references on the net to the effect that the 2/5th Devons disbanded in Egypt in June 1916. That being the case did they reform some where else or were they absorbed into some other unit? I am puzzled because a 1919 dated wedding photo in our family shows the groom to be a member of the 2/5th Devonshire. Can anyone help please?! Many thanks.

Pete Allam.

perhaps he just wore the uniform with the wrong badges - or he just wanted to look smart at the wedding - but my reference confirms disbanded June 16
