There are three locations that deal with the start of the Republican Party. The very first meeting of persons forming the Party was a Ripon Wisconsin on March 20, 1854 in the now famous "Little White School House". Next the "Under the Oaks" meeting in Jackson a few month later on July 6, 1854.
Lastly the first national meeting in Pittsburgh, PA on February 22, 1856. The Birthday of the Party is usually held on March 20th.
