From Wikipedia, link below:

"Uncle Sam is the nickname for the largest diamond ever discovered in the United States. It was found in 1924 in Murfreesboro, Arkansas at the Prairie Creek pipe mine, which later became known as the Crater of Diamonds State Park. The diamond was named 'Uncle Sam' after the nickname of its finder, Wesley Oley Basham, a worker at the Arkansas Diamond Corporation."
