Yes, all 44 and it wasn't a "convention " for the Declaration of Independence. The only convention was for the constitution in 1787. The Declaration was written by Jefferson because he was asked to write it and was in Congress. He was only 33 years old, but all ready had made a name for himself on the ability to be able to state what was needed. Congress voted on passage of the Declaration in October a few months after the publication of it in July 1776.
