I'm a 17th-18th Century figure born in Europe. I am still frequently misdescribed as a priest, but I was defrocked at my own request after seven years as a Jesuit. Destitute, I immigrated to America and received a land grant, set up my own village, and made friends with the local Indians. It was from them that I learned of a body of water which I concluded would empty into the Gulf of California. I organized an expedition, found that body of water, but it didn't terminate where I believed it would. History credits me as the "discoverer" of this body of water, although of course the natives of the region had known about it for hundreds or thousands of years.
Hint...Grandstander went to a high school named for this person.
