Description of the Flag

The flag of Dutchess County, NY, is, like many county and municipal flags from the Hudson Valley of New York, an orange, white, & blue tricolor, reflecting the area's heritage as part of the New Netherland colony. The flag can be seen in the photo of the County Legislative chamber seen at www.co.dutchess.ny.us/CountyGov/Departments/Legislature/CLindex.htm and www.co.dutchess.ny.us/CMSGraphics/CLLegChambrs2.jpg . It is also visible at the extreme left of the photo of the town board of the Town of Hyde Park, Dutchess County shown at http://www.hydeparkny.us/townboard.shtml.  The white flag at the far right in that photo is probably the Hyde Park town flag. Neither photo reveals enough for me to say whether the county seal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Dutchess_County_ny_seal.gif or some other emblem is at the center of the county flag.
