Synopsis
We’re back again this week with another famous Pennsylvanian. I guarantee you know this one but you might not know her entire story. Last week was flag day so it only seems fitting that we talk about a Pennsylvanian woman associated with the U.S. flag: Betsy Ross. Most of us can recognize the flag of the colonies: 13 stripes of alternating red and white and 13 white stars on a field of blue. But how much do you really know about Betsy Ross?
