The Thanksgiving proclamations are
the declarations made by the various authorities in regard of the
Thanksgiving Day celebrations. It is believed that first Thanksgiving
Day celebrations were held in 1621. But later it seemed to be a
difficult task for the authorities to decide a perfect day for the
Thanksgiving Day celebrations. So in different years the presidents of
the United States issued Thanksgiving proclamations and came up with new
dates for the Thanksgiving Day.
1. The First
Thanksgiving Proclamation (1676)
2. Abraham
Lincoln's Thanksgiving Proclamation (1863)
3. Continental
Congress Thanksgiving Proclamation (1782)
4. George
Washington's Thanksgiving Proclamation (1789)
