Why did President Thomas Jefferson hire Lewis and Clark?
Twenty years before Thomas Jefferson even became president, he had dreamed of exploring the West. In 1783 he had asked William Clark's brother, George, to take on the challenge. By the time the Louisiana Purchase was made in 1803, George Clark was unwilling to go so he asked his secretary of state Meriwether Lewis to do it and he accepted. Lewis left Pittsburgh, PA on August 30, 1803 in Pittsburgh PA and met Lt. William Clark weeks later on October 13, 1803 at Camp Dubois (in present-day Indiana). Clark had heard of this expedition and offered to join Lewis, and had even gathered a team of men to help. Lewis knew he was very good at handling boats, knew how to shoot, and was capable of surviving in the wilderness. They then named their team the "Corps of Discovery." From Camp Dubois, they sailed down the Ohio River towards St. Louis.
Why did Lewis and Clark hire Toussaint Charbonneau?
In 1804 Toussaint Charbonneau was interviewed to interpret Hidatsa for the Lewis and Clark expedition, but Lewis and Clark (esp. Clark) were not overly impressed with him. However, Sacagawea spoke Shoshone and Hidatsa, so they hired Charbonneau on November 4, and he and Sacagawea moved into Fort Mandan a week later. He did make several contributions to the success of the expedition. He was helpful when the expedition encountered French trappers from Canada. He served as a cook and his skill in striking a bargain came in handy. ---------------------------------------- Charbonneau, despite Clark's dislike of him, was an excellent trapper and hunter. Also, it wouldn't have been proper for Sacajawea to leave her husband and be left with all those men.
