I'm sorry, but you are wrong. the declaration of independance is written on parchment, probably made from sheeps skin. A tear in it was repaired at one time using "japanese paper," the only "paper like product" at all used on it. That's not to say that copies of it were not written on hemp paper as it was cheap and widely used at the time, but the original document is not written on hemp. That is just a simple fact.
