A 68-pounder on a replica carriage at Fort Nelson

While reading @rebelatsea 's excellent thread on the surplus Bombay Marine vessels - https://civilwartalk.com/threads/the-bombay-marine-offer-to-the-cs-government.107715/ - he wrote the following...
It is possible that some if not all of the 68pdr sb from the two big ships found their way to the Confederacy.
Thought I would bring my question over here to the 'big gun' experts instead of cluttering up the other thread.
Did the Confederates employ any 68 pdr SBs during the ACW and if so, where were they used?
Thanks for the help!
