22nd VA BTTN/55th VA

I strongly believe Colonel Carroll's Union Infantry brigade captured the 22nd Virginia Infantry Battalion's flag and the 55th Virginia Infantry's flag.

Colonel Carroll claimed his brigade captured two CSA flags. The 4th Ohio and 28th New Jersey, captured the two flags.

Meanwhile, Brigadier General Joseph Carr, reported his division which had the (2nd NJ Brigade) had captured Eight flags. OR 25, Page 445.

5th NJ--> 3 Flags (No listing in OR 25) (I believe, 123rd NY flag recaptured, 4th NC, third flag?)
7th NJ--> 5 Flags (21st VA, 18th NC, 1st LA, 2nd NC, (Unknown Alabama Regiment)
115th PA--> "Claimed to have assisted on the captured of Five flags, claiming two."

111th PA claimed to have captured the 5th AL flag. OR 25, Page 456.
68th PA claimed to have captured the 10th VA flag. OR 25, Page 414.
102nd NY claimed to have captured the 12th GA flag. OR 25, Page 731.

Thus, more research needs to be done on the 4th Ohio and 28th New Jersey, let me dig dig dig.

Have a good morning,
