11 April 1783: The United States Congress officially declares an end to the Revolutionary War against Britain.

Peace negotiations began when Cornwallis surrendered to Washington in the field at Yorktown on October 17, 1781, effectively ending the War for Independence. The preliminary Treaty of Paris was signed on November 30, 1782. Parliament ratified the preliminary treaty on January 20, 1783 and declared a ceasefire on February 4. Congress declared a ceasefire on April 11, 1783 and ratified the treaty on April 15. After more negotiations, the final Treaty of Paris was agreed to by Congress on January 14, 1784 and by Parliament on April 9, 1784, with final copies of the document exchanged in Paris on May 12, 1784.

Here is some great information on the holiday celebrating Evacuation Day in Boston. It happens to coincide with St. Patrick's Day, another great celebration for one of the most Irish cities in the U.S. Our regent is a native Bostonian and can answer your questions about the evacuation of the British from Boston any time!

March 17 is officially observed as Evacuation Day in Boston, even though St. Patrick’s Day falls on the same date. Here's the history of the pivotal day in Massachusetts (and American) history.
