Betsy Ross didn't influence America. The story of her making the first flag was made up by her grandson and she didn't have anything to do with the selection of the design or colors. If anyone is responsible for designing the flag it is Francis Hopkinson who was given credit by Congress for having done so. Our flag came about through two modifications of the British Union flag which included a red, white, and blue cross on the corner square on a solid red field. Our first flag was commissioned for the navy in 1776 and was a basic British Union flag divided by white stripes. Our second flag, the Stars and Stripes, put stars for the cross in the corner square. The red, white, and blue were derivative. They did not come from Washington's family crest and do not mean anything contrary to the Boy Scout handbook.
No, Betsy did make the flag, and it was kind of like an awakening signal for women everywhere. It told women that they could make an influence on history and that they could helpp the world.
