"May 20, 1775 is the date of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence while April 12, 1776 is the date of the Halifax Resolve. Both documents played a big part in the American independence movement." The Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence was signed in Charlotte, NC on May 20, 1775 and signed by the citizens of Mecklenburg County. The document is believed to be the first declaration from Great Britain, and according to dates was signed over a year before the Declaration of Independence.
