Although German was common in some parts of the eighteenth-century United States (the Declaration of Independence was published in a German translation on July 9,
1776), no such referendum ever took place. The story that there was one seems to have arisen in the nineteenth century, apparently based upon the fact that the Congress considered (and rejected) a proposal to print Federal Laws in German as well as English in early 1795.
