Travel was slow and cumbersome in 1778. All of the states were represented in Congress when the signing of the Articles of Confederation took place, although never present at the same time. Sixteen of the individuals who signed the Articles of Confederation also signed the Declaration of Independence. Congress approved the Articles of Confederation in 1777, and a copy was sent to each of the thirteen states for ratification. The first signing began on July 9, 1778 with delegates from New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and South Carolina involved in the process. The delegates from New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland could not sign because their respective states had not yet ratified the Articles, and the delegates from North Carolina and Georgia were not present on that day. Additional signings occurred when more delegates were in attendance. John Penn was the first of the North Carolina delegation to sign the document on July 10, and the rest of his delegation signed on July 21, 1778. John Wentworth of New Hampshire signed on August 8, 1778. Georgia signed on July 24, New Jersey on November 26, and Delaware on February 12, 1779. It wasn't until Maryland signed that the Articles of Confederation (our first constitution) became the law of the land. Due to a conflict over the control of western lands, Maryland was the last state to ratify on March 1, 1781.
