The Missouri State Museum is seeking information on a flag in its collection. The flag is a Beauregard Rifle's flag and it came to the museum in the 1920s from the Missouri Adj. Generals office but had no further provenance. Also, the back of the flag states "The Love of Our Country Leads Us." in case that triggers any leads.
We posted a picture of the flag at the following website

there has also been some discussions going on regarding the flag at the facebook page of the the Missouri Civil War Sesquicentennial Commission
