  1. As a New Jersey resident, the only one I was sure of was Richard Stockton.

    Which begs the question, do the other obscure founding fathers in this quiz have sub-par state colleges in the hick areas named after them?

  2. 100%

    I was a little uncertain about some of them (e.g. Josiah Bartlett), but I used to do a mock Constitutional Convention with my students who had to adopt the personae of various Founding Fathers, and that pretty much saved me.

  3. Yep, some of them I only knew because of the musical, 1776. Great quiz!
