No, sir, I don't have any information on the type of guns the Monticello Artillery was initially equipped with.

Sifakis is wrong about the battery being sent to the Trans-Mississippi Department. There are reports and correspondence in the Official Records which place Owens' Arkansas Battery at Spanish Fort (Mobile), Alabama, to just before the end of the war. The Compiled Service Records confirm that most of the men were paroled at Meridian, Mississippi, on May 10, 1865. Affidavits in pension applications confirm the paroles at Meridian.
