Betsy Ross, best known for making the first American flag, was born Elizabeth Griscom in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on January 1, 1752. A fourth-generation American, and the great-granddaughter of a carpenter who had arrived in New Jersey in 1680 from England, Betsy was the eighth of 17 children.
The Betsy Ross House is the only known museum in the nation that actively collects artifacts that interpret or are related to the historical and legendary Betsy Ross. A majority of the collections have been acquired to furnish the historic house as an 18th-century middling class residence and trade workshop.
