About US Independence Day
In 1775, people in New England began fighting the British for their
independence. On July 2, 1776, the Congress secretly voted for
independence from Great Britain. Two days later, on July 4, 1776, the
final wording of the Declaration of Independence was approved, and the
document was published. The first public reading of the Declaration of
Independence was on July 8, 1776. Delegates began to sign the
Declaration of Independence on August 2, 1776. In 1870, Independence Day
was made an unpaid holiday for federal employees. In 1941, it became a
paid holiday for them.
The first description of how Independence Day would be celebrated was
in a letter from John Adams to his wife Abigail on July 3, 1776. He
described "pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells,
bonfires, and illuminations" throughout the United States. However, the
term "Independence Day" was not used until 1791.
Interestingly, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, both signers of the
Declaration of Independence and presidents of the United States, died on
July 4, 1826 - exactly 50 years after the adoption of the declaration.
It is also important to note that Native Americans lived in the country
and each tribe had its own nation and government prior to the European
settlers.
