Talk:Flag of South Carolina
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The flag was officially adopted by the state in 1861. - does this mean that before 1861 they had no official flag, or that they had a different flag, and that Revolutionary-era one replaced it? Nik42 01:10, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Before the War, the flag just had the cresent moon. They added the palmetto after the secession.--Bedford 00:12, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
According to the South Carolina link at the bottom, the flag was actually designed by William Moultrie. It also says a proposal was once presented (and voted down) to change the color to purple to honor confederate dead. Worth adding to this article? Mingusboodle (talk) 03:02, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
