Monticello Artillery
The Monticello Artillery (1862-1865) was a Confederate Army artillery battery during the American Civil War. The unit was also known as: Owen's Battery, or Howell’s Battery. Some post war records refer to the unit as the Drew Light Artillery because most original members were from Drew County, Arkansas.
==Organization==
Based on the earliest dates of enlistment, the battery was apparently "organized at Monticello, Drew County, Arkansas, on February 8, 1862."〔Howerton, Bryan R., "Monticello Artillery (Owen's Battery)", Edward G. Gerdes Civil War Page, Accessed 26 December 2012, http://www.couchgenweb.com/civilwar/monticel.html〕 The battery is occasionally referred to as either the Drew Light Artillery or "Drew's Battery",〔 based on the units association with Drew County, Arkansas, but these references only appear in post war pension records and other articles.〔
The battery was reorganized for the war on May 15, 1862. In the first quarter of 1864, the battery was armed with five 6 pdr bronze smoothbores and one 3.3" rifle. In May 1864, armed with two 6 pdr smoothbores, one 3.3" rifle and one 12 pdr howitzer.〔Black, Ron.
