William Clark and Meriwether Lewis
Meriwether Lewis and William Clark were their names.
Meriwether Lewis had a Newfoundland dog named Seaman. Lewis purchased him for some $20 from a riverboat captain who had won him and his mother playing cards. Seaman (or Scannon) accompanied Lewis all the way to the Pacific Ocean and returned with him to St. Louis.
I'm pretty sure the name of the dog was seaman or something....
Meriwether Lewis's real name is actually Meriwether Lewis.
Lewis died of depression so his dog died of broken heart. :(
