Mike,

The battle flag of the 22nd Virginia Cavalry. Captured by Sgt. Levi Shoemaker of the 1st West Virginia Cavalry at the Battle of Nineveh (Cedarville), Virginia on November 19, 1864.

Today the flag is housed at the Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond, Virginia. There is a picture of the flag on my website. Two of my ancestors served in the 22nd VA Cav.
