You’re about to meet someone who is not well known. The person is a male. His name starts with a “y”. He was a slave. His name is York!
York lived from about 1770 to about 1804. He was born in Virginia. York was huge, muscular, and had very dark skin.
York was famous because William Clark took him on an expedition.
On the expedition York proved himself to be more than a simple servant. York was born into Clark’s household as a slave and served as William Clark’s personal servant. York was Clark’s companion since youth. York and Clark were about the same age.
