Fort Fisher Flag – General Sam Bell Maxey’s Regiment Flag – Fort Fisher Battle Flag – 2nd National Confederate Garrison Flag -Ft Fisher Garrison Flag
Size 3×5 feet
This is the flag that was carried by Samuel Bell Maxey during the Civil War. Born on March 30, 1825, in Paris, Texas, Maxey served as a brigadier general in the Confederate States Army. After the war, he transitioned from military service to politics, representing Texas as a U.S. Senator—thus serving his people not on the battlefield with arms, but in the Senate with words.
Additionally, this flag has a unique provenance: it was later discovered at the Elmira prison, where soldiers captured during the battle at Fort Fisher were held captive. Maxey’s legacy spans both his military contributions and his political career, which continued until his passing on August 16, 1895.
He was a brigadier general in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War and later represented Texas in the U.S. Senate.
