In referring to the Battle Fort Blakeley, in the book, Pictorial History of the Civil War of the United States of America by Benson J. Lossing, page 513, Google Books, Chapter, The Evacuation of Mobile, the author states the following: "The spoils were nearly forty pieces of artillery, four thousand small arms, sixteen battle flags, and a vast quantity of ammunition".
Does anyone know if any of these battle flags have been identified as to being captured at Fort Blakeley? Who would you suggest I contact to see if they have? Would the Fort Blakeley historical site be a good starting point? Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Regards.
