It is not clear that John Cabot took a St Georges Cross style flag with him to Newfoundland in 1497. Further the flag depicted is not the British flag, it is the St Georges Cross, commonly used as the flag of England. Britain was formed c.1800. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_England https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acts_of_Union_1800
