    Answer: Button Gwinnett, Lyman Hall, and George Walton

    Explanation:

    Georgia joined The United States on August 2, 1776, the same day that signed the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia.

    The declaration was approved on July 4, but signed by only one man that day, John Hancock. Fifty other delegates to the 2nd Continental Congress signed on August 2. Later that year, five more brought the total to 56.

    Eight of the signers, including Gwinnett, were foreign born. One was Roman Catholic, a handful were deists and the rest were Protestants. They all went on to lives of public service in the republic they founded: there were two future presidents, three vice presidents, two Supreme Court justices, and many congressmen, diplomats, governors, and judges among them.
