Other Details
The Lord Baltimore flag combines the black and gold family arms of the lords Baltimore, the colonial proprietors of Maryland, granted to the first Lord Baltimore - George Calvert in 1622.
This flag was used to represent Maryland from the 1600's until the Revolutionary War when the United States was born and a national flag was used. Through the years various banners were used to represent the state, although none was adopted officially as a state flag. The State of Maryland did not adopt an official state flag until 1904, and that flag incorporates Lord Baltimore's colors in two quadrants.
