- 1934, Joseph Jones, "Hail, Fredonia!", American Speech, Volume 9, Number 1, February 1934, page 12:
- So instead of Americans, or, sometimes, Yankees, we might have been known as Usaners, or United Statesers, United Statesese, United Statesards, United Statesmen, or Uessians, or Unionists, as the human fancy varies.
- 1938, Lousi Pound, American Speech - Volume 13 - Page 64
- Suggests 'Uessian' (U-S-ian) instead of 'American,' since 'American' rightly belongs to any person in North or South America.
- 2007, Bob Buckel, "A Glimpse of the Big Picture…", Azle News, September 2007:
- Don’t get me wrong – I like Americans, or Uessians or whatever it is we should be calling ourselves.
