John Hancock
John Hancock was an American businessman, politician, and prominent patriot of the American Revolution. He was president of the Second Continental Congress and the first and third governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. He is remembered for his grand and elegant signature on the Declaration of Independence, so much so that the term "John Hancock" or "Hancock" became synonymous in the United States with his signature. Before the American Revolution, Hancock was one of the wealthiest men of the Thirteen Colonies, having inherited a profitable business from his uncle. He began his political career in Boston as the protector of Samuel Adams, an influential local politician, though the two later separated. Hancock used his property to support the colonial government as tensions increased between the settlers and Britain during the 1760s
