It was located fourteen miles east of Perryville, ninety miles south of Saint Louis, and lay directly on the Mississippi River.〔Roadside Thoughts: Seventy-Six http://www.roadsidethoughts.com/mo/seventysix-tidbits.htm〕 == Etymology == A number of theories abound to where the name Seventy-Six originates from. One theory tells of an 1844 flood where a steamboat captain who had been sent to the site to rescue the people reported that he had made 76 landings. Another theory concerns a steamboat captain who had quit swearing and had acquired the habit of exclaiming "''That beats all 76,''" when he was vexed. He used the expression so often at that landing that the steamboat men had got into the habit of calling it Seventy-Six. Another possible explanation is that the landing is the 76th landing after leaving St. Louis. Yet another theory exists that the Government River Commission numbered the river landings and this was No. 76 from the head of the navigable waters.〔Southeast Missourian: Seventy-Six, Missouri: Even number, odd name http://www.semissourian.com/blogs/pavementends/entry/33475/〕 Another story explaining the origin of the name has it that the first captain to land his boat at the site was celebrating his 76th birthday. According to steamboat captain John Wilkinson, who was to later found the town, the name of the community came from an unfortunate accident when he struck a snag and sank his vessel just outside the nearby landing in 1886, and since it happened to be the seventy-sixth landing on the voyage, the town was named for the catastrophe. Legend has it that Mr. Wilkinson printed a board on the opposite bank "76 LDG" from which the town took its name.〔Wichern.org Seventy-Six Missouri http://www.wichern.org/towns/76.htm〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seventy-Six, Missouri」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
