The black field with the three silver elephants heads is derived from the arms of Charles Pratt, first Earl of Camden and Lord Chacellor of England, and after whom the See of Camden is named. In 1773, Jacob Cooper, a descendant of William Cooper, laid out a town and named it for Lord Camden in commemoration of his friend, as a strong defender of the American colonial rights.
