Brown's Battery

There are several references (Wright - Arkansas in the War, Sibley - Confederate Artillery Organizations, Ancestry.com - Confederate Officers Card Index) to a "Brown's Battery" under the command of Capt. Lawrence T. Brown and Lieutenants Mark A. J. Bonville, Robert P. Parker and John C. Banks. The officers are shown as being commissioned on 31 October 1861. These officers were members of Company H, 1st Arkansas Mounted Rifles known as the Dardanelle Rangers or the Yell County Rifles.

I can't find anything regarding their artillery service. Can anyone help?

Note: This is a different company to Capt. Louis W. Brown's battery formed later in the war.
