Of the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence:
Five were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes burned to the ground. Two lost sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, and two more had sons captured. Nine fought and died in the Revolutionary War. he signers were flesh and blood, mortal men with a divinely-inspired aim.Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists, eleven were merchants, and nine were farmers and large plantation owners. They were well educated, smart enough to know that by signing the Declaration of Independence, they were signing their own death warrants. They did it anyway, and God bless them for it.
and for them we have the freedom that we enjoy

I wonder if they ever wondered what their country would be like in the future
I mean if some how they came to the future and saw that America Was a world power what would they say
If it wasn't for the Farmers, Merchants and many other Workers that risked there lifes for Freedom and a Better life then we wouldnt have all the great things in the world today :flag1:
