Len;
Could not identify any Georgia battery equipped with Napoleon cannons during the Tullahoma campaign. However, General Pendleton's report of March 29th, 1864 concerning the artillery of the Army of Tennessee credits two Georgia batteries with Napoleons. Corput's battery(formerly commanded by Capt. Marcellus Stovall)of Hardee's Corps, had four Napoleons while Capt. M. W. Havis' battery battery had two Napoleons, one 6 pdr filed gun and one 12 pdr howitzer. This is just before the Atlanta campaign began.
Hope this helps
Ron
