Description of the Flag

An image and brief history of the Ingham County flag appears at http://www.ingham.org/BC/template%20files/InghamCountyFlag.htm:

"This flag consists of a white center field with wide cobalt blue bands on each side; centered in the flag is the seal of Ingham County in blue, circled by the words Ingham County, Michigan in red, which in turn is circled by a broken band of red and cobalt blue."

A brief history and description of the county seal is at http://www.ingham.org/BC/template%20files/InghamCountySeal.htm:

"The seal is circular with the words, 'The Great Seal of Ingham County, Michigan', and the date 'A.D. 1838' inscribed around the outside. The central part of the seal is divided into four parts. At the bottom is a mortar board which represents education, at the left are wheels and cogs, representing industry. The sixteen cogs on the side represent the townships in Ingham County. At the top is the State Capitol Dome, representing the State Seat of Government in Michigan. At the right is an ear of corn, representing agriculture."
