When reading through the rosters of the Illinois Militia I noticed that some soldiers were designated as "Color Bearer" or "Color Sergeant". Does anyone know of any documentation of flags OR if any still exist??

Thus far, I have found no evidence of flags among the Michigan Territory militia volunteers.
An analysis of the muster rolls of the mT companies at the National Archives might yield other results.
Bob.

Mike, I believe I have found a half-answer to your question about the color bearers. I posted it in the Illinois militia section because it is from the Illinois Militia Laws.
