I've been trying to find more information on the battery the past few days and I'm having a hard time. Any information or pictures and links to the flag or uniforms would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks everyone, I'm hoping to find pictures or descriptions of a flag and the enlisted uniforms. However it is possible that no pictures related to the battery exist.

Try researching Captain V. Maurin.

At Antietam the Donaldsonville Artillery had two 10 lb Parrott rifles, (2.93" bore,) one 3 inch ordnance rifle, and three 6 lb smoothbore.
