Summary
| Description | Flag of Mississippi January 26, 1861 to circa August 22, 1865. It remained the unofficial flag until 1894, when the current flag was adopted. According to Clay Moss, Mississippi Department of Archives and History, Vexillological Research Volunteer on June 21, 2015 at the Flags of the World website, this flag is likely a post-war flag used by United Confederate Veterans units, as it does not conform to the 1861 language describing adoption of a new secessionist flag: "A Flag of white ground, a Magnolia tree in the centre, a blue field in the upper left hand corner with a white star in the centre, the Flag to be finished with a red border and a red fringe at the extremity of the Flag." |
