Authenticating flag

From: Becky Schaly <achs>
Date: Monday, March 26, 2001
I work for a small historical society which has in its possession a
confederate "Stars and Bars" flag that was captured on Cheat
Mountain, VA (now WV).  It has ten stars formed in a circle and is
in excellent condition.  It measures 55 x 122 inches and the size
brings into question whether it is a battle flag or perhaps used in
some other manner?  I would appreciate any information that would
help us make the determination.
