Help! Declaration of Independence
 
Ok.... I've searched everything from what I have. Part of my project is to find out the first 5 people who signed the Declaration of Independence. The internet is very slow out here (at sea) and I'm wasting too much time waiting and clicking on every google results that came up.

So please help me out. I know some of you are still in school and may have done a book report or essay about this.

Anyway, I would greatly appreciate it......:yes:

Actually most of them signed in order of geographic location from north to south (with the exception of the president of the continental congress, Thomas Jefferson). So it should have gone Jefferson, Josiah Bartlett, William Whipple, Matthew Thornton, and Samuel Adams.

The Committee Of Five were charged with drafting the thing.
