The next three weeks saw newspaper or broadside printings in New London, Connecticut; Providence, Rhode Island; Hartford, Norwich, Exeter, Salem, Worcester, New Haven, Portsmouth and Williamsburg.⠀ .⠀ The present broadside edition is believed to have been printed in Exeter, New Hampshire sometime in July 1776.⠀ .⠀ A Contemporary Broadside Edition Of The Declaration Of Independence, Continental Congress, 1776.
