Flag of 1861
One of the many early flags of Louisiana. This was flown in January of 1861. It never had official status. It is described on page 147 of the book "Flag Book of the United States" by Whitney Smith. There is an image of this flag on page 136 of the book "Flags through the Ages and Across the World" by Whitney Smith.
Louisiana adopted a 13 stripe flag (4 red, 5 white and 4 blue) with a gold star in a red canton on Feb. 11, 1861.
