| 5851 | [combined.ged] He was a Banker. | PELTON, Ernest Taylor (I009944)
|
| 5852 | [combined.ged] He was a Banker. From the 1892 Book: "Brewster was a man of enterprise a nd of sterling integrity and piety. Occupied in early manhood as a dealer in cattle, afterward a merchant. In 1834 he removed to Oberlin, OH, one of fifty families who settled there. He built the second house in Oberlin, and there established himself as the leading merchant of the place. He was looked up to and trusted by all, he became by common consent their banker. From its beginning the college in Oberlin found in him a staunch friend and liberal supporter. At his death he was still a member of its Board of Trustees - an office held by him for many years. He remembered the college at that time a gift of $ 25,000. In 1850 or 1852 he removed to Cleveland, OH where he purchased property on the west side of the city. With President Mahan a general merchant and George Slade, he endeavored to establish a university in that part of the city, since known as University Heights - their aim having been to give an education both classical and scientific. An effort was also made to establish on the Heights a school for young ladies similar to that of Mount Holyoke in MA. Both of these enterprises failed from causes beyond the control of Mr. Pelton and his associates, much to their regret. Identified with all movements for the improvement of Cleveland, and especially of his own ward, it may be said that he was the founder of the Congregational Church upon the Heights, contributing one-fifth of its entire cost when it was built, and giving liberally to its support so long as he lived." | PELTON, Brewster (I000619)
