No they did not. Sacajawea was about thirteen years of age when she was bought and taken as a wife by Toussaint Charbonneau, a French trapper.

Lewis and Clark (esp Clark) weren't overly impressed with his skills, but were impressed with Sacagawea who spoke Hidatsa and Shoshone. Therefore they hired Toussaint and Sacagawea naturally came along.

What ricks did Sacagawea take in order to become a member of the expedition?
Sacajawea risked everything to join the expedition. First, there were the dangers that a journey through the wilderness posed to herself and her infant, including death by starvation, inclement weather, and wild animals. Also, she didn't know Lewis or Clark or the other men in the expedition; she had to trust her husband that she would be safe during the journey. In addition, and perhaps most importantly, Sacajawea could not be sure of the reaction of other Native Americans to the expedition, which might have looked like a war party. Also, since she had recently given birth, she was in a weakened state and perhaps not fit to take a long, arduous journey.
