Hi Mary Jo,
happy to help.
The fate of lots of CSA flags is also this - sent home during the war and hidden - and many remain in the hands of CS descendents to this very day but are not known.
Also - with regards to Ebay - those flags are 99.9 per cent FAKES! Only tyhe ones from reputable auction houses are real. Those found in garage sales, estate sales, etc. are fakes.
