Contrary to popular belief at one time, "U.S." does not refer to the man "Uncle Sam" (Wilson) of Troy, NY. The U.S. stamp on barrels of meat once attributed to his name actually refers to the United States. This is speculated to be the origin of the national personification of the United States, which is "Uncle Sam".
