Its a complicated issue Confederate flags. There were several issues of flags to the ANV. There actually were several patterns...with suttle differences in trim, # of stars etc. I believe that during the valley campaign, units may have been issued the square St. Andrews cross flags...but with orange trim along three edges (excluding the hoist). These were bunting flags. However I have to point out that this pattern may actually have been issued afterwards. (I told you it is complicated!)
There also was 12 star cotton flags with yellow or orange trim and 12 star silk flags...which were of a pinkish/red hue! I believe some of Ewell's people had these silk flags. But I am sorry I cant answer your central question as to which specific units had them.
Not many of these wonderful silk or cotton flags survive...but many bunting ones do...Thank goodnes.
BTW: There is a print that artist Don Troioni (sp.?) that shows
CS flags being issued...may be worth going to his site and seeing if any info is there.
I will see what I can find in my books at home...and will post more if I find some pertinent info.
