History Lesson



John Hart was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, which was signed on this day in Philadelphia in 1776. John Hart was a representative of New Jersey (one of the 13 colonies represented for signing), hailing from Hopewell, NJ. John Hart is ALSO one of our ancestors on my Father's side!! How exciting!

He signed it in the fifth column, second signature from the bottom. Kinda hard to see, but check it out!
