Declaration of Independence

[Jill Hofmockel <jhofmockel@CCS.K12.IA.US>]

Good morning

Here is a reference question for us.=20

A special ed. student at a friend's school asked her if there was a copy =
of the Declaration of Independence sent to King George. We've done some =
research and spoken to reference librarians at the local university and =
they didn't have an answer for us beyond what we already knew.=20

We know that the original is on display at the library of congress, but =
we'd like to know  how the king was informed (i.e. did he receive a copy =
of the document), and whatever happened to that copy?

I'm always amazed by this group, so I thought I would see what you could =
come up with.

Thanks!
Jill
