A little 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."
