The Bonnie Blue is flown all over St. Francisville, if that's what you mean. That's true heritage right there.


That's technically not the "Bonnie Blue" flag, but rather the flag of the West Florida Republic, of which St. Francisville was the capital. The legislature incorrectly renamed the flag in 2006, and it's required by law to be flown over certain governmental buildings in the Florida Parishes.

The Bonnie Blue flag did not come into existence until 1861.
