While it was of short duration, and had little immediate effect on any but those living in extreme East Texas, Hayden Edwards' rebellion against the Mexican authorities in 1826 became an important reason for the distrust that the Mexicans began to display of all Anglo-Americans. For this reason, the Fredonian Rebellion, while unsuccessful, was a major factor in creating strained relations betweeen the Mexicans and the colonists, and after ten years of strife finally resulted in the Texas Revolution. Edwards' flag of white and red with the inscription 'Independence, Freedom and Justice' was displayed years later in Harris county meeting. This flag is made out of nylon material.
