Many people were taught that Betsy Ross was the lady who made the first United States Flag. But this isn't true. This was a story probably made up by her son.

The lady who did made the first United States flag was Mary Pinkersgill. She was hired in 1813. She was helped by her daughter Caroline, her nieces Eliza and Margaret Young and Grace Wisher, an indentured servant.
