On July 4, 1776, the fair copy of The Declaration was sent to the printer John Dunlap who produced the Dunlap Broadside
I added the following to the opening... on July 4, the fair copy was sent to the printer John Dunlap who produced the Dunlap broadside which were printed with "Signed by Order and in Behalf of the Congress, John Hancock, President. Attest. Charles Thomson, Secretary." 73.85.205.139 (talk) 19:13, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

Signatories are listed in the wrong order
The article says that the delegates' signatures were grouped by state, in the order from south to north, with Georgia first and New Hampshire last, and the photograph of the signatures bears that out. Yet their names and states are listed in reverse order. Why not list them in the order they appear on the document? Richard75 (talk) 17:03, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
