Troutman Flag Hat or Lapel Pin
In 1835 the Texan's fight for independence attracted attention throughout the United States and Texan leaders spoke at public meetings from New Orleans to New York. Although the United States was officially neutral, hundreds of individuals headed west to answer the call for help and to seek their fortune in Texas. Organized groups of volunteers were sent from communities in Kentucky, Ohio, Georgia, Louisiana and Alabama. An 18-year-old girl made this flag for one such group from Macon, Georgia. It became one of the most inspirational symbols during the dark days between the fall of the Alamo and the victory at San Jacinto.
