Re: Flag of Blackland Gideonites

Hello,

The flag of the Blackland Gideonites has not been seen since the 1864 New York Sanitary Commission Fair where it was displayed along with other captured CS flags at the time. The NY State Military Museum does not have it.

The 23rd Mississippi lost 5-6 company flags (and probably mroe) at the surrender of Ft. Donelson - that of the Plentitude Invincibles rests in the collections of the Ohio Historical Society - or I should say what's left of it.

Hope this helps.
