Fredonian Rebellion Flag
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. Made out of nylon material.

Texas Navy Flag
Historians have rarely recorded the true importance of the Texas Navy in winning the Texas Revolution against the Mexican dictator. But without the efficient and effective work of the Texas Navy in preventing the landing of Mexican troops and supplies at Texas coastal cities during the campaign, the victory would probably have not been won, or at least would have been greatly postponed. Its similarity to the United States flag often confused the Mexican warships and when they saw it in the breeze, they hurried away without giving battle. This flag is made out of nylon material.
