Edward Avery McIlhenny
Edward Avery "Ned" McIlhenny (1872 – 1949), son of Tabasco brand pepper sauce inventor Edmund McIlhenny, was an American businessman, explorer, and conservationist.〔Shane K. Bernard, ''Tabasco: An Illustrated History'' (Avery Island, La.: McIlhenny Company, 2007).〕
Born in 1872 at Avery Island, Louisiana, McIlhenny was educated privately before attending Dr. Holbrook's Military School in Sing Sing (now Ossining), New York. McIlhenny enrolled at Lehigh University, where he joined Phi Delta Theta fraternity, but he dropped out of school to join Frederick Cook's 1894 Arctic expedition as an ornithologist. In 1897 he financed his own Arctic expedition to Point Barrow, Alaska, where he helped to save over a hundred stranded whaling fleet sailors (including Japanese adventurer and entrepreneur Jujiro Wada).〔John Bockstoce, ''The Arctic Whaling Disaster of 1897'' (New York, N.Y.: Explorers Club, 1978).〕
According to McIlhenny's book ''The Alligator's Life History'', he once killed an alligator measuring over 19 feet in length — said to be the longest American alligator ever recorded.
==Marriage==
He married Mary Givens Matthews, daughter of William Henry Matthews & Mary Campbell Given, on 06 Jun 1900 in New Orleans, Louisiana.
