Names behind the eponyms Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
George Rogers Clark Memorial in Vincennes. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Visiting George Rogers Clark National Historical Park Commentary by Don Knebel George Rogers Clark National Historical Park, along the Wabash River in Vincennes, honors the young leader of TRAVEL a daring American military campaign. When the American Revolution began, the British Province of Quebec included the land north of the Ohio River between the Mississippi River and the Appalachians. Quebec Lt. Gov. Henry Hamilton, stationed at Fort Detroit, enforced a royal proclamation barring further European settlement by encouraging Native Americans to attack settlers. In 1777, 25-year-old George Rogers Clark convinced Virginia Gov. Patrick Henry to authorize him to recruit volunteers to attack British outposts. During 1778, Clark and 175 frontiersmen captured Fort Kaskaskia, along the Mississippi, and Fort Sackville, along the Wabash. Hamilton soon recaptured Fort Sackville. After learning from Italian ally Francis Vigo (for whom Vigo County was named) that Hamilton was there, Clark led 170 American and French volunteers through harsh winter conditions from Kaskaskia back to Fort Sackville. A surprised Hamilton surrendered and was taken prisoner on Feb. 25, 1779. Virginia then claimed Quebec Province south of the Great Lakes, which later became the Northwest Territory. Clark, hailed as the “Conqueror of the Old Northwest,” was supported later in life by his brother, William, co-leader of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. In the 1930s, Indiana and the United States jointly erected a classical-style circular memorial to George Rogers Clark (for whom Clark County was named) on the pre-
Statue of Francis Vigo in Vincennes.
As autumn dawns, I get excited about college football, scalding-hot soup, pumpkin-flavored everything and warm woolen cardigans. This got GRAMMAR GUY me to thinking: From where do we get the word “cardigan”? The cardigan is named after Lord Cardigan, also known as James Brundell, 7th Earl of Cardigan. Lord Cardigan won fame for his questionable leadership during the Crimean War. In October 1854, he led his British Light Cavalry Brigade against Russian troops at the Battle of Balaclava. Although Cardigan lost 107 out of 654 of his men, his troops reached the Russian battery and took out the enemy’s guns. Lord Cardigan came back without a scratch. Capitalizing on Lord Cardigan’s military legend, clothiers began calling the knitted military jacket he and other officers wore during the war “cardigan jackets” and “cardigan waistcoats.” This term for naming an item after a person is called an eponym. Although Lord Cardigan didn’t invent or design the cardigan, many eponyms are
named after the person who either discovered a place or invented an item. We see this in the Caesar salad, a salad named after Caesar Cardini, an Italian restauranteur who operated the aptly named Tijuana restaurant, Caesar’s, in the early 1900s. Other examples of eponyms credited to their creator or discoverer include America, nicotine, silhouette, saxophone, sandwich and boycott. I’d rather be known as the guy who invented the sandwich than the poster child for saying “no” to things. Believe it or not, the cardigan isn’t the only eponymous clothing term that emerged from the Crimean War. The largest global conflict of the mid-1850s also gave us the “raglan” sleeve. Named after Fitzroy James Henry Somerset, 1st Baron of Raglan, a raglan sleeve is “a sleeve that extends to the neckline with slanted seams from the underarm to the neck.”
