Type muskets carried by MI 23rd

I have a family heirloom which is a musket which "may" have been carried by a Great-Grandfather who was in Co. "D", of the 23rd Michigan Infantry Regiment.

I am looking for sources of information on what type of muskets were issued to "D" Company, or if "D" Company volunteers provided their own. Even if there is only information available on what caliber the muskets were, that would be helpful.

regards

Steve Turner
