Notes for this person
Best known as the founder of Mellon Bank and patriarch of the Mellon family of Pittsburgh. Mellon entrusted his sons with business ventures from very early ages. By the age of 21, his son Tom had raised, with hisson Jim, some $100,000 operating a nursery, lumber yard and construction supply business, and Andrew was managing a theatre at the age of 17.[5] Well-prepared for business, the Mellon family ranked among the wealthiest and most prominent industrialists in the United States by the time of Judge Mellon's death in 1908.
