1. The section above titled “Betsy Ross the Upholsterer” mentions the large payment that Mrs. Ross received on May 29, 1777, for making flags for Pennsylvania’s navy. A sample of those flags (an ensign and two commissioning pennants) can be seen in Pennsylvania’s Revolutionary War-era seal, which is in the Pennsylvania Supreme Court Chamber in Independence Hall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. (Source: Moeller, Henry W. “Two Early American Ensigns on the Pennsylvania State Arms.” NAVA News (newsletter of the North American Vexillological Assn.). Jan.-Mar. 2002. Issue No. 173. Vol. 35. No. 1. pp. 2-6.)
2. It was a coincidence that Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as the official National flag of United States on June 14, 1777, which was two weeks after Mrs. Ross’ payment for making Pennsylvania navy flags. Congress adopted its Marine (maritime) Committee’s U.S. Flag Resolution of June 14, 1777, on the spot without prior discussion. The Flag Resolution was sandwiched between routine naval affairs that had nothing to do with flags. (Source: U.S. National Archives. Papers of the Continental Congress. Record Group 360. Rough Journals, 1777-89. Vol. 9. Apr. 14-Sept. 6, 1777. p. 243.) Submitted by Earl P. Williams, Jr., U.S. flag historian (paleovexilloogist), Washington, D.C.
