According to
https://www.facebook.com/photo
on their official Facebook, Northampton County has a flag. To quote the Facebook page, the
symbolism of the flag is as follows:
"NORTHAMPTON COUNTY FLAG
Green
The green stroke stands for the land and the abundant plant and animal
life which grow on the land. The bounty and beauty of the area attracted the
first people to this land over 10,000 years ago.
Blue
The blue shape
coursing the flag represents the water resources of Northampton. Indians
lived on the Roanoke and Meherrin Rivers.
Bright Disc
The bright disc
stands for the bright hope of our future and the steadiness and potential of
people rooted in heritage."
From what I can see at
https://www.facebook.com/photo
and
https://www.facebook.com/256260454706063,
the county seal that is included in the first link is not included on the
flag used by the county.
I cannot confirm when the flag was
designed/adopted nor who designed it.
The image came from their Facebook
page with some changes to remove the seal and match the available photos.

The Sheriff's office has informed me that it does not have a flag.
