Default WW1 Yeomanry cap badges question

At the start of WW1 the TF procured their own badges as did the Yeomanry.

In 1916 only a few TF badge designs were then issued by the WD and sealed patterns produced. This number was reduced even further in late 1916 when the blank scroll badges were made redundant by the decision to grant the regular battlehonours: although KLR informs me that some of these TF blank-scroll design were later used by the Volunteer Bns (late VTC).

With this background, did any Yeomanry badges granted sealed patterns? As so many of the yeomanry regts were merged and/or converted into county service infantry bns (for example the F&F, Surrey, Scottish Horse, all spring to mind) and were issued the infantry badges, (or as cyclists or as composite companies in MGC units) does anyone know of s/p dates for yeomanry during WW1 or did it take until 1920 for them to be issued?
