If I understand you correctly, the branch itself was not tagged
correctly?

In these cases, cvs2cl.pl (http://www.red-bean.com/cvs2cl/) does a
fairly good job at finding out when the branch was created. Then, you
can use this date info to create a tag for the branch point.

Note that cvs2cl.pl might fail to find the exact date when there were
consecutive checkins at the time the branch was created. Anyway, in most
cases, you can find it out with not much hazzle.

HTH.

Beste Grüße,
Spiro.
