The name LEWIS AND CLARK is from the American expedition designed to find a land route to the Pacific Ocean. It mustered in Illinois in 1804 and for the next 28 months proceeded to gain invaluable information about the unknown parts of the continent and its native American inhabitants. The exploring party returned to St. Louis in September 1806. For the rest of their lives, Lewis and Clark dedicated their abilities to administration of the U.S. territories and gave valuable service in Indian affairs. Meriwether Lewis died 11 October 1809 and William Clark died 1 September 1838.
