pecan lore from Craig Claiborne:
“Pecans are, to my mind, the most Southern of nuts. One authority I know
states that they were grown in Virginia long before George Washington was
born and that the name derives from the American Indian word ‘pakan’. The
earliest colonists in Virginia and North Carolina transliterated the word
as ‘pagan’ and as a result, the Pagan River, which flows through
Smithfield, Virginia, was named for the abundance of pecan trees that grew
along its shores and not for any pagans who lived nearby.”
