| dbo:abstract | Jonathan Carver (* 13. April 1710 in Weymouth, Massachusetts; † 31. Januar 1780) war ein amerikanisch-britischer Entdecker. (de) Jonathan Carver (Weymouth, Massachusetts, 13 de abril de 1710 – Londres, 31 de enero de 1780) fue un explorador colonial de Massachusetts y luego escritor, recordado por haberse aventurado al oeste de la parte alta del río Misisipí, penetrando en el Oeste americano más que cualquier otro explorador inglés antes de la revolución de las Trece Colonias (1789) y por haber estimulado con sus libros la curiosidad acerca de las rutas hasta el Pacífico, más tarde satisfechas por Alexander MacKenzie (1789 y 1792-1793) y la expedición de Lewis y Clark (1804-1806). Carver había servido en milicia colonial de Massachusetts en el inicio de la Guerra Francesa e India y después fue contratado para explorar las tierras conquistadas a los franceses, una expedición que alcanzó Minnesota y Wisconsin. A su regreso, su patrocinador había sido acusado de traición y a Carver no se le pagó. En 1769 se marchó a Inglaterra para intentar cobrar sus servicios, tarea a la que dedicó el resto de su vida. En ese tiempo escribió el relato de su exploración, Travels... [Viajes...] que se publicó en Londres en 1778 siendo muy popular. La ciudad de Carver (Minnesota) y el condado de Carver, en Minnesota fueron nombrados en su memoria por su exploración y cartografía de la región. (es) Jonathan Carver (April 13, 1710 – January 31, 1780) was a captain in a Massachusetts colonial unit, explorer, and writer. After his exploration of the northern Mississippi valley and western Great Lakes region, he published an account of his expedition, Travels through America in the Years 1766, 1767, and 1768 (1778), that was widely read and raised interest in the territory. Carver was born in Weymouth, Province of Massachusetts Bay on April 13, 1710, the son of David and Hannah (Dyer) Carver. His father was modestly wealthy and was elected to various public positions in Weymouth and Canterbury. The family moved to Canterbury, Connecticut when Carver was still a young child. The details of his education are unknown but he was literate, taught himself surveying and cartography, and may have studied medicine at one time. He also apprenticed as a cobbler. On October 20, 1746 he married Abigail Robins and they eventually had five children together. Around 1748, Carver moved his young family to Montague, Massachusetts, at the time a small frontier settlement, where he served as a selectman. In 1755 Carver joined the Massachusetts colonial militia at the start of the French and Indian War. In 1757, Carver, a friend of Robert Rogers, enlisted with Burke's Rangers. Burke's Rangers would in 1758 become a part of Rogers' Rangers. During the war he studied surveying and mapping techniques. Carver was successful in the military and eventually became captain of a Massachusetts regiment in 1761. Two years later he quit the army with a determination to explore the new territories acquired by the British as a result of the war, as France had ceded its territory east of the Mississippi River to Great Britain. Initially Carver was unable to find a sponsor for his proposed explorations but in 1766, Robert Rogers contracted Carver to lead an expedition to find the Northwest Passage, what was believed to be a western water route to the Pacific Ocean. There was a great incentive to discover this route. The king and Parliament had promised a vast prize in gold for any such discovery. The eastern route to the Pacific was around the Cape of Good Hope at the foot of Africa. That route was both lengthy and contested by competing European powers. In 1766-67 Carver explored parts of present-day Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa, mainly along the upper Mississippi River. When he returned east, however, his efforts were not recognized. He sailed to England in 1769, seeking recompense, and remained there for the rest of his life. In 1778 he published a book on his travels, which became very successful. He died in 1780. Following his death, some of his heirs claimed that he had obtained a land grant from two Sioux chiefs for a large area of eastern Wisconsin during his expedition. But the grant was legally invalid and may have been a fraud mounted posthumously.
