    343. Saint Lawrence namesake

    The first European explorer known to have sailed up the St. Lawrence River itself was Jacques Cartier. At that time, the land along the river was inhabited by the St. Lawrence Iroquoians. Because Cartier arrived in the estuary on Saint Lawrence's feast day of August 10th, 1535, he named it the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the St. Lawrence River.

    342. Lawrence, Saint or River?

    Many place names throughout the continent were inspired by Christianity. For example, The mighty St-Lawrence River is the namesake of the early Christian, Laurence of Rome (225-258 AD). Saint Lawrence was one of the seven deacons of the city of Rome, under Pope Sixtus the Second, who were martyred in the persecution of the Christians that the Roman Emperor Valerian ordered in 258 AD. His annual Feast Day is August 10.

    339. Jacques Cartier, Christian

    Cartier (1491-1557) grew up in the Catholic port city of Saint-Malo in France where he acted frequently as a godfather and witness in local church baptismal registries. He sailed under the authority of the "Most Christian King" Francis I and voyaged under official royal mandates that explicitly tied French exploration to the service of Catholic Christendom. Cartier famously planted a 30-foot cross at Gaspé  Bay in 1534 that symbolized both French sovereignty and the Catholic faith. He also named many of his discoveries in honor of Christianity, including the majestic Saint Lawrence River.
