Still looking into 12th, 1776, so I have no idea what I have found, just sharing:

It was January 12, 1775, when the original Concord Minute Men signed the muster rolls thus organizing one of the most famous citizen militia units in American history.

 

They led the march to Concord’s North Bridge on April 19, 1775, provided the first forcible resistance to the British in the American Revolution, and forever recorded their town’s name in the annals of American history.

 

Plans for the reactivated Minute Men began in April, 1962, and a proclamation chartering the unit was issued by the Concord Selectmen and the Public Ceremonies Committee on December 10, 1962. The date of the first muster was Saturday January 12, the same date the original Minute Men first mustered in 1775.

 

Today, the Minute Men are still a proud part of the Concord Community. We are very active these days participating in many area parades, school presentations, fife and drum events, road race starts as well as reenactments around the area.

Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence

The Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence is a text published in 1819 with the claim that it was the first declaration of independence made in the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolution. It was supposedly signed on May 20, 1775, in Charlotte, North Carolina, by a committee of citizens of Mecklenburg County, who declared independence from Great Britain after hearing of the battle of Lexington. If the story is true, the Mecklenburg Declaration preceded the United States Declaration of Independence by more than a year. The authenticity of the Mecklenburg Declaration has been disputed since it was published, forty-four years after it was reputedly written. There is no verifiable evidence to confirm the original document's existence and no reference to it has been found in extant newspapers from 1775.[citation needed]
