FLAG DESCRIPTION / HISTORY
Connecticut Statehood 1788; one of the original 13 colonies, 5th to become a state.
Year Flag Adopted: 1897

Inspired by a memorial from the Anna Warner Bailey Chapter of the daughters of the American Revolution, Governor O. Vincent Coffin, on May 29, 1895, introduced to the General Assembly the first proposal for the adoption of a State Flag. On that same day the Assembly passed a resolution appointing a special committee to prepare a designation of the flag already generally accepted as the official flag of the state.

The General Assembly of 1897 provided an official description of the flag ....of azure blue silk, with the armorial bearings in argent white silk with the design in natural colors and border of the shield embroidered in gold and silver. (ref. ct.gov – The State Flag)

Connecticut Arms of the State

The shield is the State Coat of Arms / Armorial Bearings

The official description of the Arms calls for: A shield of rococo design of white field, having in the center three grape vines, supported and bearing fruit.

Below the shield shall be a white streamer, cleft at each end, bordered with two fine lines, and upon the streamer shall be in solid letters of medium bold Gothic the motto: "QUI TRANSTULIT SUSTINET" (He Who Transplanted Still Sustains). (ref; ct.gov, The Armorial Bearings)
