Hi Robert, and welcome!

Donations to the Smithsonian and other historical groups/Institutions are sometimes reported on by local media. Have you considered looking at Chronicling America and other historical newspaper databases online to see if any papers reported on the donation. If one did it may have more information on the table, or if it was donated to some place other than the Smithsonian - it would tell you where.

Also I found the blog post Laurie was referring to:
