Betsy Ross didn't influence anyone. The fable of her making the flag comes from her grandson and was made up. The man who was responsible for the design of the flag was Francis Hopkinson and Congress gave he credit for it. The first flag was made for the navy in 1776 and was a simple basic British Union flag divided by white stripes. The second flag, the stars and stripes substituted stars for the cross in the corner square.
