John Penn was a North Carolina signer of the Declaration of Independence. He was a successful lawyer and served on the Board of War, which gave him complete control over North Carolina's war effort. In this role, he was closely involved with the defeat of General Cornwallis and supplied Revolutionary War guerrilla fighters under the command of Frances Marion, the character played by Mel Gibson in the movie "The Patriot."
