United States History Question.?

I was assigned to a project with a partner where we had to look up famous United States History people and I can’t find Hernando DeSoto. I need to know who he was, what he did that was important and when he did it. Any websites that have that information is helpful, or any answers, thanks.

Try wikipedia. It should have correct information, though use it at your own risk, hah.

I’d post the link but for some reason my computer won’t let me.
