What are Lewis and clarks first name?
Their full names were "Meriwether Lewis" and "William Clark." Both did not have a middle name. And for those who say that "Gable" is William Clark's middle name, that is wrong. You're thinking of the American film actor William Clark Gable.
When did William Clark start to sail?
William Clark did not "sail" per say. But he did journey through the Louisiana Territory on rivers with Meriwether Lewis and other members of the Corps of Discovery.Before Lewis met up with Clark, he began the expedition on August 30, 1803 in Pittsburgh PA. Lt. William Clark would offer to join Lewis on the expedition weeks later on October 13, 1803 at Camp Dubois (in present-day Indiana). There they named their team the 'Corps of Discovery'. At the time, Lewis as 29 years old and Clark was 33. From there, they sailed down the Ohio River towards St. Louis.
Why do some people say that the Lewis and Clark expedition failed?
History does not report them as failure. In fact, historians cite the success of their trip.
In 1804 when the expedition started what city did it start from?
First of all, it was Meriwhether Lewis who was assigned to explore the West. Clark would offer to join up with the Discovery Corp weeks after Meriwether Lewis started his journey. According to the first entry of the Lewis and Clark Journals, Lewis began on August 30, 1803 in Pittsburgh. Yes that's right, Pittsburgh, NOT St. Louis.Check the related link to the FIRST ENTRY of the Louis and Clark Journals and it will say that Lewis began in Pittsburgh and first sailed down the Ohio River.

No one died during the expedition.Afterward, Lewis was the first to die. They found him shot to death in Tennessee. People say he either killed himself or was murdered.
Why did Sacagawea become successful?
I am not sure you can say she was "successful ". She was a Native American woman with a baby married to a French trapper and she helped Lewis and Clark.
How many hours did Lewis and Clark take on the expedtion?
To answer that question, I have to say first that it did not begin in St. Louis, because before Lewis met up with Clark, he began the expedition on August 30, 1803 in Pittsburgh PA. Lt. William Clark would offer to join Lewis on the expedition weeks later on October 13, 1803 at Camp Dubois (in present-day Indiana). They then named their team the 'Corps of Discovery'. From there, they sailed down the Ohio River towards St. Louis. The expedition then ended on September 23, 1806 upon their return to St. Louis from Oregon.If you say the expedition began on October 13, 1803 when Clark joined in, the expedition took more or less 25,790 hours.If you say the expedition began when Lewis first left Pittsburgh on August 30, 1803, then the expedition took more or less 26,880 hours.
Who was the most famous native American that was female?
This is really more a question of opinon, though I'd be inclined to say Sacagawea; she was the guide for Lewis and Clark. Hope I helped!
