Ben,
That is the flag I was referring too; also the soldier. It is a nine star 1st National with the canton on the bottom left corner of the flag. It appears he served as a Captain in the Trans Mississippi Department; earlier in at least two Texas companies or at least they appear to be the same man. I am working on getting more information now. If you come up with something please let me know. My email is shirleyjwoodlock@yahoo.com
Thank you,
Shirley
