Best Answer

The order of signing is relegated to order by state signed. There is no official transcript as to who signed first (John Hancock) all the way through to who signed it last. Therefore it is indexed by state, and by the men from each state.

Lewis Morris represented New York with three other men. The order of their names as indexed (and not necessarily the order they signed) are:


Lewis Morris
Philip Livingston
Francis Lewis
William Floyd
