History of Alabama Flag
On January 11, 1861, at the Secession Convention, the citizens of Alabama resolved to break away from the Union of the US and adopt a separate flag for themselves. This first official Alabama Flag, known as the Secession Convention Flag, was patterned by some Montgomery women. Another popular name of this flag was the Republic of Alabama Flag. The life of this flag was short-termed and it was flown only for a month, after which it got tattered in a rough storm. For some years Alabama also used a flag of the Confederate States of America. The United States Flag rose above the Alabama state till 1891, when Alabama planned to opt for a unique and new flag for itself.
It is said that the present red cross
Alabama State Flag, authorized by the State mightily flew over Alabama for 112 long years.
