was called the Boston Tea Party. Since her job was a seamstress at her former
husband?s upholstery business, it was tradition that George Washington call on
her to ask her to design and sew a national flag. After asking if she could make
couple of changes on Washington?s original design she began to sew the famous
American flag. After all this happened Betsy married a shipmate, Joseph Ashburn

sister in Philadelphia. Betsy Ross lived a very interesting life and is very
