Noah Webster publishes his first American Dictionary of the English Language on April 14, 1818. I believe his 1828 version was his most famous widely distributed. Webster was a Yalie who bought Benedict Arnold's house in New Haven and in 1775 escorted Gen. Washington out of town playing Yankee Doodle Dandy on his flute. https://www.nhregister.com/news/article/Look-it-up-Noah-Webster-s-famous-dictionary-was-11581993.php
