Meet the Signers of the Declaration of Independence
As we
celebrate the approval of the Declaration of Independence, just a mere two days after Congress adopted the document (speedy!) here's a look at some of the 56 men who put pen to parchment. Not the usual suspects, your John Adams (who said it was "dress and ornament rather than Body, Soul, or Substance,") your Thomas Jefferson, or Benjamin Franklin — that's kids' stuff. Did you know a guy named "Button" signed the thing? Oh, yes. Button. Let's meet him and his friends now. . . .
