Mecklenburg County declared British authority suspended in May 1775, more than a year before the Declaration. A separate and bolder document, the Mecklenburg Declaration, is claimed for the same month but no original survives, North Carolina puts its date on the state flag anyway, and historians have argued about it since 1819.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
