Description
Mississippi Bicentennial Exhibit
The Mississippi Bicentennial Exhibit will be touring the state in lead up to Mississippi's celebration of 200 years of statehood in 2017.
- The exhibit will display the original 1817 Mississippi state constitution and a very rare 200 year old 20-star U. S. flag.
- The exhibit will be at the B. J. Chain Public Library in Olive Branch on Tuesday, November 15 from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Wednesday, November 16 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
The Olive Branch Genealogy Club is sponsoring the exhibit with the assistance and support of the Desoto County Museum and the Friends of the Olive Branch Library.
The flag is the 3rd official U. S. flag and the first flag under the flag law, which created the design with 13 stripes for the original 13 states and a star for each state as it is admitted to the Union. Mississippi was the 20th state admitted to the Union.
