Was the Declaration of Independence written on hemp?

First off, hemp isn't made out of marijuana. There were several copies of the Declaration of Independence. None of which were written on hemp, or paper made out of marijuana.

I'm pretty sure that it was not. I'm sure it was written on a different kind of parchment. I don't even think they used hemp to write on back then.
