Lawrence immediately began lobbying for the adoption of a flag. By 1914, a statewide contest was held to select a design. The new flag was designed by Miss Lucy Derwent of Rockford and featured the image of the state’s 1868 Great Seal on a white background. The flag was officially adopted on July 16, 1915. In 1970, the flag was redesigned to include the state name.
