There were three versions as more states were added. The Flag looked like the one we have today except it had 33 stars. Two Rows of 7 stars then 1 Row of 5 stars and then 2 Rows of 7 Stars. Then on 4 July 1861, Kansas became the 33rd state. The center row had 6 Stars. Then on 4 July 863, West Virginia was added as 35th state. This gave the flag 5 Rows of 7 stars on each row.

Are the flags lowered on President's day?

The flags are not lowered to the middle position on the flag poles because President's Day is about celebrating and honoring the births of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. The US Flag is put into the middle position on the flag poles when there is a death of a VIP or if you have a flag pole for your loved one. They leave the flag all the way up on President's day to celebrate the President's birthdays and their significance in the history of the USA. They lower it at the end of the day to take it off the flag pole until the next day.
