Declaration of Independence and Constitution
The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution are the documents that paved the road for the United States of America. They set forth the ideas and principles behind a just and fair government. Only six individuals were able to sign both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. These gentlemen were Benjamin Franklin, James Wilson, Roger Sherman, George Read, George Clymer, and Robert Morris.
Benjamin franklin was born on January 17, 1706 in was Millstream, Boston. He was one of seventeen children. He went to school at Boston Latin school but did not end up graduating. He later went to work for his father, but at the age of twelve he went and worked for his older brother, James, as a printer. Benjamin’s Brother taught him all about the career of painting. After a few years, at age 15 he went and made The New-England Courant. This was the first truly independent newspaper in the colonies. As Benjamin Franklin got older, he began expanding his horizons. He became a scientist, an author, an inventor, and is also known for the signing of important documents such as the Treaty of Alliance with France, the Treaty of Paris, Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution.
James Wilson was born on September 14, 1742 in Carskerdo, Scotland. He attended the Universities of St. Andrews, Glasgow, and Edinburgh but was unable to graduate before leaving Scotland. He traveled across the Atlantic in search of a better life and ended up becoming a lawyer who helped draft the Declaration of Independence before signing it. After signing the Declaration, he had led a fight for ratification in Pennsylvania and won.
Roger Sherman was born on June 13,1721 in Newton, Massachusetts. His father’s name was William and his mother’s name was Mehetable Sherman. Though Roger didn’t have any official education he was active in the colonies' struggle for independence from British rule. He served in the Continental Congress from 1774-1781 and 1783-1784. When Roger got older, he married Elizabeth Hartwell on November 17th, 1749. They had 7 children but, sadly, Elizabeth died on October 19th, 1760. But Sherman remarried Rebecca Prescot in May of 1763.
George Read was born on September 18, 1733 in Cecil County, Maryland. George received education at the Philadelphia Academy under Doctor Allison at New London. After graduating at age 15 he continued to study law at the office of John Moland in Philadelphia. He later became a member of the Delaware Committee of Correspondence, 1774. He later became a member of both the First Continental Congress and the Second Continental Congress. It was there where he signed the original 'Petition to the King' of the Congress of 1777, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution of the United States. What's odd, is that although Read signed the Declaration of Independence, he actually voted against independence on July 2, 1776, making him the only signer of the Declaration to vote against freedom. After the Constitution was ratified, he became President of Delaware and was a member of the Federalist party until his death in 1798.
