Abstract:

William Powell, professor of history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, is attempting to change the flag of North Carolina. One of the dates that appears on the flag has been challenged by history scholars, and Powell has suggested using the original colony's flag instead. That flag, which is white and has a red cross of St. George on it, was the one the Lost Colony flew.
