Good morning,

The Wisconsin Historical Society recalls that on this date in 1783

Paris Peace Treaty Signed

On this date the Paris Peace Treaty was signed. The treaty demanded land, including Wisconsin, be ceded from Britain to the United States. Two years after the conclusion of the Revolutionary War, American and British delegations met in Paris to formalize Britain’s recognition of the United States of America. The treaty articles were drawn up on November 30, 1782 and formally agreed upon on September 3, 1783. [Source: University of Oklahoma, College of Law]
