In 1994, Cumberland, Md., mayor and city council voted to remove one of Cumberland’s historic flags from the City Hall rotunda. This flag was one of many flags that was involved in Cumberland’s history since it became a city in 1787. The Confederate Naval Jack. Over the years the CHCO has become very concerned over the terrible historic revisionist in our nation. The CHCO took action to promote and save the graves of American Revolutionary and Confederate Soldiers. The CHCO has made it a practice to decorate the graves with the proper historical flags.
