Scott,

My guess is that the badge you have is from a reunion of the United Confederate Veterans. There were several hundred local camps, and the national organization had annual reunions starting in the 1890s. Here is a group in Little Rock in 1911, and most of them have badges on. I'm sure others on this board may have seen or even own similar devices.
