The Betsy Ross House



The Betsy Ross house was built in 1740 and is the house where Betsy sewed our first American Flag.

In the mornings, Betsy comes out of the house to raise the flag. My boys were fortunate to be picked to help Betsy on the morning of our visit. You can see the photo HERE

  1. This is a wonderful post, Tanya. I had never heard of Betsy Ross. I like learning about American history. Have a great Wednesday.

  3. One of my favorite stops in Philly. They do a great job with the kids, too, letting them particpate.
