1)Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, the two men most responsible for writing the Declaration of Independence, both died on the same day. The date? July 4, 1826, exactly 50 years after the signing of their declaration!
2)Since 1774 the United States of America has had nine different capitals.
3)George Washington didn’t sign the Declaration of Independence because he was out in the field with his army, not in Philadelphia where the Declaration was signed.
The word "bigwig" originated around the time of the American Revolution. It meant a person of real or fancied importance. The larger the wig a person wore, the more important he was designated to be.
