I think that Betsy Ross made the flag because in the script that we read it states that Betsy Ross’ grandson and other family members were told some of the stories about the fact that she made the flag. It also says that General Washington asked Betsy Ross if she could make a flag, apart from the British flag, that shows their freedom and independence. General Washington showed her his idea, but she wanted a few changes to it, like the stars points, and how their should only be five points instead of six, like his original idea, or how the flag should be rectangular instead of a square. Another reason is that it says that George Washington went to the same church as Betsy Ross, which might be one of the reasons he might know to go to her earlier, since they had talked about her early troubles in life and how she was a widow at such an early age.
