The Union Cockade was used by Federalist supports, especially after the tricolor cockade became popular with the Democratic-Republicans (at the time simply called Republicans) following the French Revolution. It was a black and white colored cockade that had its origins during the American Revolutionary War, worn by American forces to symbolize the union of the Americans (using black, taken from the British military cockade) and the French (white, for the monarchy) forces against the British.
