The flag they designed was adopted on 24 August 1847, about a month after Liberia had declared independence on 26 July 1847. The day the flag was adopted, the nation held a celebration in Monrovia. There, the flag was unfurled to the public for the first time, and Susannah Lewis gave a patriotic speech.
The first national flag of Liberia was adopted in 1827; it is very similar to the flag of the United States as it was a Colony of the United States of America previously. It featured eleven red and white stripes with a blue square and white cross in the left hand corner.
