Was she from Illinois? My third grade teacher pronounced it like that, too, and she was originally from Illinois. Drove me nuts when she talked about George Warshington.

re. pronouncing "wash" as "warsh"

One of my college roommates pronounced it that way. He was from California although his father had been in the service and they moved around a bit.
