"Self-Evident"​

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Take some time today and read the text of the Declaration of Independence.

“The text of the Declaration of Independence, from “When in the course of human events” through “our sacred honor”, is approximately 1,320 words long. Some versions of the text add, subtract, or change words, which affects the word count. If you include the title from the engrossed parchment, “In Congress, July 4, 1776. The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,” the total word count is 1,337. If you include the names of the 56 signers, the total word count is 1,458.”

Independence Day: Would You Have Signed? The Price they Paid..​

Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons in the revolutionary army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the revolutionary war.

They Paid there Price for Freedom, God Bless them.

Roger Sherman (April 19, 1721 – July 23, 1793) was an early American statesman, lawyer, and a Founding Father of the United States. He is the only person to sign all four great state papers of the United States: the Continental Association, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the Constitution.[1][2] He also signed the 1774 Petition to the King.

Yep, Bro and it doesn't mean we are any better than the rest of the Americans who honor and celebrate its founding. Still, it is kind of neat that we do have this Family History...cr8crshr/Bill
