[Wasichu]

A quiz worthy of history buffs!

I hate to admit I had (OUCH) only 6 right!

[PROCON]

Thanks luvie!

7 / 15

[Beowulf9]

9/15 I don’t know how I got that many right.

[luvie]

[the OlLine Rebel]

11/15 and “I have some work to do!”

Several were tough questions. Didn’t realize Monroe also had a July 4 death date.

[luvie]

#3....Beowulf9!
Good job!
Great score on the quiz, too!

[luvie]

That’s a great score!

I didn’t know any of them had a 4th of July death date. Thus my horrible score. LOL!

[Tell It Right]

I meant to post this earlier.

The Lee Resolution agreed on July 2 was the real Independence Day. A lot of FReepers know that. But not largely known is that Richard Henry Lee was the uncle to Robert E Lee.

[Adder]

Only 9...Dang

[luvie]

Still better than most of us. LOL! Good score!

The original Declaration of Independence has one signature - John Hancock’s.
When he saw what is now referred to as the Dunlap Broadside of the Declaration of Independence, he exclaimed, “Is mine the only treason?” What is called the engrossed copy of the Declaration of Independence has many signatures and was signed in August, 1776, and beyond. Something like 100 copies of the Dunlap Broadside were printed. One was sent to King George. One was sent to General Washington in New York.

[luvie]

Thanks! I didn’t know either thing, so I learned something tonight.

[luvie]

You guys are teaching me a lot of little known facts tonight!
