15 Star Flag
1795-818
KY, VT
This flag was flying above Ft. McHenry at
Baltimore when the British attacked on September 13, 1814. Francis
Scott Key, a lawyer from Washington had gone aboard a British ship
seeking the release of a friend held prisoner. He was detained
throughout the night. The sight of the American flag still flying
over the fortress the next morning inspired Key to write what, in
1931, became our National Anthem. The original Fort McHenry flag
is displayed in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. This
design, born with the Second Flag Act on January 13,1794, is our
only official flag ever to have more than thirteen stripes.
