Irishman Gen Stephen Moylan , an aide-de-camp to general George Washington during the American Revolution is credited with being the first person to write “United States of America”. He used the term United States of America in a letter to a fellow officer in the continental army. This is not to say he was the first to use the term orally.
According to Michelle O’Mahony, a history consultant, Moylan used the term in a letter dated January 2nd/3rd, 1776, well before it was used in the declaration of independence on July 4th, 1776.
“Moylan used the term in a letter to Col Joseph Reed, who was also one of George Washington’s aides-de-camp, in which he expresses his desire to travel to Spain and serve as a representative of what he explicitly calls the United States of America,” said Ms O’Mahony.
