shows a square design with three interlocking maple leaves in gold on a blue

The flag of Hammond, Indiana, has centered on it a map of the Land of Calumet (see image). The flag of Hammond was adopted in 1971. Source: Albert Kirsch.
It is uncertain if the flag is coloured. I THINK the two rivers are named Great Calumet and Little Calumet - although it certainly looks to me from the flag that the first one is spelled Grate Calumet. Village website is at http://www.ahlibrary.com/.

train, an important early industry.
