About The Mississippi State Flag
-
The committee to design a State Flag was appointed by
legislative action February 7, 1894, and provided that the flag
reported by the committee should become the official flag. The
committee recommended for the flag "one with width two-thirds of
its length; with the union square, in width two-thirds of the
width of the flag; the ground of the union to be red and a broad
blue saltier thereon, bordered with white and emblazoned with
thirteen (13) mullets or five-pointed stars, corresponding with
the number of the original States of the Union; the field to be
divided into three bars of equal width, the upper one blue, the
center one white, and the lower one extending the whole length
of the flag.
