</p><p><b>Uncle Sam</b> (with the same initials as <i><a href="United_States" title="United States">United States</a></i>) is a common <a href="National_personification" title="National personification">national personification</a> of the United States, depicting the <a href="Federal_government_of_the_United_States" title="Federal government of the United States">federal government</a> or the country as a whole. Since the early 19th century, Uncle Sam has been a popular symbol of the U.S. government in <a href="American_culture" class="mw-redirect" title="American culture">American culture</a> and a manifestation of <a href="Americanism_(ideology)" title="Americanism (ideology)">patriotic</a> emotion.<sup id="cite_ref-T.A._Hicks_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-T.A._Hicks-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Uncle Sam has also developed notoriety for his appearance in military <a href="Propaganda_in_the_United_States" title="Propaganda in the United States">propaganda</a>, popularized by a 1917 <a href="World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a> recruiting poster by <a href="James_Montgomery_Flagg" title="James Montgomery Flagg">James Montgomery Flagg</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>According to legend, the character came into use during the <a href="War_of_1812" title="War of 1812">War of 1812</a> and may have been named after <a href="Samuel_Wilson" title="Samuel Wilson">Samuel Wilson</a>. The actual origin is obscure.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The first reference to Uncle Sam in formal literature (as distinct from newspapers) was in the 1816 <a href="Allegorical" class="mw-redirect" title="Allegorical">allegorical</a> book <i><a href="The_Adventures_of_Uncle_Sam%2C_in_Search_After_His_Lost_Honor" title="The Adventures of Uncle Sam, in Search After His Lost Honor">The Adventures of Uncle Sam, in Search After His Lost Honor</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-AM_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AM-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>While the figure of Uncle Sam specifically represents the <a href="Federal_government_of_the_United_States" title="Federal government of the United States">government</a>, the female figure of <a href="Columbia_(name)" class="mw-redirect" title="Columbia (name)">Columbia</a> represents the United States as a nation. An archaic character, <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a>, was known to represent the American populace.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Earlier_personifications">Earlier personifications</h2></div>

<p>The earliest known personification of the United States was as a woman named <a href="Columbia_(personification)" title="Columbia (personification)">Columbia</a>, who first appeared in 1738 (<a href="Thirteen_Colonies" title="Thirteen Colonies">pre-US</a>) and sometimes was associated with another female personification, <a href="Liberty_(goddess)" class="mw-redirect" title="Liberty (goddess)">Lady Liberty</a>.

</p><p>With the <a href="American_Revolutionary_War" title="American Revolutionary War">American Revolutionary War</a> of 1775 came <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a>, a male personification. Brother Jonathan saw full literary development into the personification of American national character through the 1825 novel <i><a href="Brother_Jonathan_(novel)" title="Brother Jonathan (novel)">Brother Jonathan</a></i> by <a href="John_Neal" title="John Neal">John Neal</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Uncle Sam finally appeared after the <a href="War_of_1812" title="War of 1812">War of 1812</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="Columbia_(personification)" title="Columbia (personification)">Columbia</a> appeared with either <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a> or Uncle Sam, but her use declined as a national person in favor of Liberty, and she was effectively abandoned once she became the <a href="Mascot" title="Mascot">mascot</a> of <a href="Columbia_Pictures" title="Columbia Pictures">Columbia Pictures</a> in the 1920s.

</p>

<p>A March 24, 1810, journal entry by Isaac Mayo (a midshipman in the <a href="US_Navy" class="mw-redirect" title="US Navy">US Navy</a>) states:

</p>

<blockquote><p>weighed anchor stood down the harbor, passed <a href="Sandy_Hook%2C_New_Jersey" class="mw-redirect" title="Sandy Hook, New Jersey">Sandy Hook</a>, where there are two light-houses, and put to sea, first and the second day out most deadly stomach ache, oh could I have got onshore in the hight [<i>sic</i>] of it, I swear that uncle Sam, as they call him, would certainly forever have lost the services of at least one sailor.<sup id="cite_ref-newlight_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-newlight-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Evolution">Evolution</h2></div>

<p>An 1810 edition of <i><a href="Weekly_Register" title="Weekly Register">Niles' Weekly Register</a></i> has a footnote defining Uncle Sam as "a <a href="Cant_(language)" title="Cant (language)">cant term</a> in the <a href="United_States_Army" title="United States Army">army</a> for the <a href="Names_of_the_United_States" title="Names of the United States">United States</a>."<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Presumably, it came from the <a href="Names_of_the_United_States" title="Names of the United States">abbreviation of the United States</a> of America: U.S.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Samuel_Wilson_legend">Samuel Wilson legend</h3></div>

<p>The precise origin of the Uncle Sam character is unclear, but a <a href="Urban_legend" title="Urban legend">popular legend</a> is that the name "Uncle Sam" was derived from <a href="Samuel_Wilson" title="Samuel Wilson">Samuel Wilson</a>, a <a href="Meatpacker" class="mw-redirect" title="Meatpacker">meatpacker</a> from <a href="Troy%2C_New_York" title="Troy, New York">Troy, New York</a>, who supplied rations for American soldiers during the War of 1812. There was a requirement at the time for contractors to stamp their name and where the rations came from onto the food they were sending. Wilson's packages were labeled "E.A.—U.S." When someone asked what that stood for, a co-worker jokingly said, "Elbert Anderson [the contractor] and Uncle Sam," referring to Wilson, though the <i>U.S.</i> actually stood for "United States".<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>Doubts have been raised as to the authenticity of this story, as the claim did not appear in print until 1842.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Additionally, the earliest known mention definitely referring to the metaphorical Uncle Sam is from 1810, predating Wilson's contract with the government.<sup id="cite_ref-newlight_10-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-newlight-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Development_of_the_character">Development of the character</h3></div>

<p>In 1835, <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a> made a reference to Uncle Sam, implying that they symbolized different things: Brother Jonathan was the country itself, while Uncle Sam was the government and its power.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>A <a href="Clockmaker" title="Clockmaker">clockmaker</a> in an 1849 comedic novel explains "we call...the <a href="Americans" title="Americans">American public</a> Uncle Sam, as you call the British <a href="John_Bull" title="John Bull">John Bull</a>."<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>By the 1850s, the names <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a> and Uncle Sam were being used nearly interchangeably, to the point that images of what had previously been called "Brother Jonathan" were being called "Uncle Sam". Similarly, the appearance of both personifications varied wildly. For example, one depiction of Uncle Sam in 1860 showed him looking like <a href="Benjamin_Franklin" title="Benjamin Franklin">Benjamin Franklin</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> while a contemporaneous depiction of <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a><sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> looks more like the modern version of Uncle Sam, though without a <a href="Goatee" title="Goatee">goatee</a>.

</p>

<p>

An 1893 article in <i><a href="The_Lutheran_Witness" class="mw-redirect" title="The Lutheran Witness">The Lutheran Witness</a></i> claims Uncle Sam was simply another name for <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a>:</p><blockquote><p>When we meet him in politics we call him Uncle Sam; when we meet him in society we call him <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a>. Here of late Uncle Sam <i>alias</i> <a href="Brother_Jonathan" title="Brother Jonathan">Brother Jonathan</a> has been doing a powerful lot of complaining, hardly doing anything else. [<i><a href="Sic" title="Sic">sic</a></i>]<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote>

<p>Uncle Sam did not get a standard appearance, even with the effective abandonment of Brother Jonathan near the end of the <a href="American_Civil_War" title="American Civil War">American Civil War</a>, until the well-known recruitment image of Uncle Sam was first created by <a href="James_Montgomery_Flagg" title="James Montgomery Flagg">James Montgomery Flagg</a> during <a href="World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a>. The image was inspired by a British recruitment <a href="Lord_Kitchener_Wants_You" title="Lord Kitchener Wants You">poster</a> showing <a href="Herbert_Kitchener%2C_1st_Earl_Kitchener" title="Herbert Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener">Lord Kitchener</a> in a similar pose. It is this image more than any other that has influenced the modern appearance of Uncle Sam: an elderly white man with white hair and a <a href="Goatee" title="Goatee">goatee</a>, wearing a white <a href="Top_hat" title="Top hat">top hat</a> with white stars on a blue band, a blue <a href="Tail_coat" class="mw-redirect" title="Tail coat">tail coat</a>, and red-and-white-striped trousers.

</p>

<p>Flagg's depiction of Uncle Sam was shown publicly for the first time, according to some, on the cover of the magazine <i><a href="Leslie's_Weekly" class="mw-redirect" title="Leslie's Weekly">Leslie's Weekly</a></i> on July 6, 1916, with the caption "What Are You Doing for Preparedness?"<sup id="cite_ref-loc_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-loc-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> More than four million copies of this image were printed between 1917 and 1918. Flagg's image was also used extensively during <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, during which the US was codenamed "Samland" by the German intelligence agency <a href="Abwehr" title="Abwehr">Abwehr</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The term was central in the song "<a href="The_Yankee_Doodle_Boy" title="The Yankee Doodle Boy">The Yankee Doodle Boy</a>", which was featured in 1942 in the musical <i><a href="Yankee_Doodle_Dandy" title="Yankee Doodle Dandy">Yankee Doodle Dandy</a></i>.

</p><p>There are two memorials to Uncle Sam, both of which commemorate the life of Samuel Wilson: the <a href="Uncle_Sam_Memorial_Statue" title="Uncle Sam Memorial Statue">Uncle Sam Memorial Statue</a> in <a href="Arlington%2C_Massachusetts" title="Arlington, Massachusetts">Arlington, Massachusetts</a>, his birthplace; and a memorial near his long-term residence in Riverfront Park, <a href="Troy%2C_New_York" title="Troy, New York">Troy, New York</a>. Wilson's boyhood home can still be visited in <a href="Mason%2C_New_Hampshire" title="Mason, New Hampshire">Mason, New Hampshire</a>. Samuel Wilson died on July 31, 1854, aged 87, and is buried in <a href="Oakwood_Cemetery_(Troy%2C_New_York)" title="Oakwood Cemetery (Troy, New York)">Oakwood Cemetery</a>, Troy, New York.

</p><p>In 1976, Uncle Sam was depicted in "<a href="United_States_Bicentennial" title="United States Bicentennial">Our Nation's 200th Birthday</a>, <a href="Invention_of_the_telephone" title="Invention of the telephone">The Telephone's 100th Birthday</a>" by <a href="Stanley_Meltzoff" title="Stanley Meltzoff">Stanley Meltzoff</a> for <a href="Bell_System" title="Bell System">Bell System</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In 1989, "Uncle Sam Day" became official. A Congressional joint resolution<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> designated September 13, 1989, as "Uncle Sam Day", the birthday of <a href="Samuel_Wilson" title="Samuel Wilson">Samuel Wilson</a>. In 2015, the family history company <a href="MyHeritage" title="MyHeritage">MyHeritage</a> researched Uncle Sam's family tree and claims to have tracked down his living relatives.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
