Suffolk Resolves



= =  Suffolk Resolves   Gigi Jiang   History The Suffolk Resolves was a document preceeding the D eclaration of Independence. It also led to Paul Revere's ride. After all the meetings Paul Revere was sent to the first Continental Congress to present the Suffolk Resolves document. On September 4,1774 the document, written by Joseph Warren, was signed and addressed to George the Third about how England was being unfair and cruel. The people were protesting against the Intolerable Acts which were also enacted during 1774. All the people in Suffolk County joined and agreed on their refusal to obey the Intolerable Acts. The Suffolk Resolves was the document that led to our perfect civilization today.



The Suffolk Resolves House
The Suffolk Resolves House was a regular house on 40 Adams Street in Milton that belonged to Daniel and Rachel Smith Vose. It did not have its name like now back then, but was named after the Suffolk Resolves was written there. It is also referred as the "Birthplace of Liberty". Now it is currently located at 1370 Canton Ave Milton, MA and was donated to the the Milton Historical Society. The Milton Headquarters' location is now currently in the house. You can take a tour inside and see the house where the amazing document was written!
