Jim, I'm from St. Louis and there is tremendous French influence here, from the names of streets, parks and landmarks. I have fleur-de-lis motif all over my home. It's on our flag, along with the squiggles representing the Mississippi River.

St Louis MO uses this symbol for their city. You can see it in virtually every public place.

If only the French had conquered Mexico rather than Spain, I think the current political and economic situation would have been better than it has been.
