no lots of people have the same last names!
In 1803, when was President of the United States, the U.S. purchased the Louisiana Territory from France. This was a huge tract of over 800,000 square miles, taking in nearly the entire mid-section of North America from present-day Texas and Louisiana up to Montana and North Dakota. This almost doubled the size of the new country. Much of the new territory was unexplored. Jefferson decided to send an expedition up the Missouri River to its source in the western mountains and beyond to the Pacific Ocean. Jefferson hoped that the expedition would be able to find the elusive Northwest Passage, a water route across the country, which would be a great boon to commerce. So in that same year, Jefferson commissioned the Corps of Discovery under the command of his trusted private secretary, Meriwether Lewis. Besides seeking the Northwest Passage, Lewis was to map the new territory, assess its natural resources, and make contact with its inhabitants, befriending them if possible. Lewis recruited his friend William Clark to share equally in the command of the expedition, as well as a force of over 40 men. The members of the Corps of Discovery were soldiers, but their purpose was peaceful -- exploration, diplomacy, and science. Lewis was commissioned as a Captain of the Army of the United States, Clark as a Lieutenant (although this inferior rank was kept secret from the men, and Clark was always called "Captain").
Lewis fought boy ages 13 to 15, there were no warriors present. historians need to tell the truth. The Blackfeet youth, did try to steal horses. My great great great grand father was Wolf Calf, who fought Lewis at age 13. Lewis and one of his crew members stabbed to death one boy, and shot the other as he was running away.
5¢, the same as all of the Lewis and Clark bicentennial nickels in circulation. Also note that ALL U.S. coins carry the motto "E Pluribus Unum" (From Many, One) so that doesn't help to identify any specific coin. Date, denomination, and mint mark are the most important factors.
he used the same trail Desoto's people would profusely describe twelve years later...wich comfirms that Navaez ahd taken a different route to the Bay
Louis and Clark took the same route and were one group not separate groups.

The routes of Lewis and Clark both involved exploration of the western United States, specifically the Louisiana Purchase territory. They were looking for a water route to the Pacific Ocean and documenting new plant and animal species as well as interactions with Native American tribes along the way.
Yes
5 states
They both went to the same place for their expedition
They were early explorers of the North American continent.
Lewis became Clark's friend because they both seem almost alike for example both grow up in Virginia. Most people make friends because of what they are the same.
No actually they did not. Upon their expedition they traversed many different marshes, forests, and other land masses whil traveling across north America never to follow the same water route for an over extended amount of time.
The black man on the Lewis and Clark expedition was York, who was a slave owned by William Clark. York played a significant role in the expedition and was treated as an equal by the explorers, but unfortunately did not receive the same recognition or freedom upon their return.
well they both leadershiped the same way
Lewis met up with Clark, he began the expedition on August 30, 1803 in St. Louis, Missourri. Lt. William Clark would offer to join Lewis on the expedition weeks later on October 13, 1803 at Camp Dubois (in present-day Indiana). And being that the expedition began in Pittsburgh, they passed through 15 states: Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, then Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington.
