I'm looking for information on the brigade flags flown by the Army of the James in 1864 by the 10th and 18th Corps, before they were shuffled around and redesignated the 24th and 25th.

I've read the order on May 3rd, 1864 specifying the army HQ flag, as well as the corps and division flags for the army. However, in reference to the brigade flags it just says "Brigade colors will be furnished as soon as practicable."

I've found two clues. Below is a picture of Brigadier General William Hawley and staff. He commanded the 2nd Brigade, 1st Division, 10th Corps. The flag looks a lot like an Army of the Potomac style brigade flag, with the stripe along the hoist to designate the 2nd Brigade. The corps symbol is a 4-sided fort, but I don't think it was in use at the time, and to me I think the star somehow represents the 1st Division, probably to the point that the star and bar are both blue to represent the 10th Corps (as opposed to red for the 18th Corps).

Are there any other references to Army of the James brigade flags out there? Any other clues?

The other flag is from a brigade in a provisional division guarding Bermuda Hundred, probably even after the corps changed in the Army of the James. Therefore, I don't think its a very good reference.
