Re: Description of the Gate City Guards (GA.) Flag

Richard,

The Gate City Guards - Ramsey's 1st Georgia Infantry - lost this flag in the Cheat Mountain Cmpaign of 1861 in Western Virginia. The flag was made form their former US militia flag.

It is held at the Atlanta History Center for the Gate City Guard today.

The GCG was issued a second company flag later in the Summer of 1861.
