| Hinweise | "Mr. Edmund Morewood Ferguson was born in New York City August 15th, 1838. After his graduation from Trinity College, Hartford, Conn., he engaged for some years in the iron business. He lived at Pittsburgh, Pa., and, after purchasing a half interest in Fishers Island, spent the summers there in his own house on the Highland Range overlooking what is now Fort Wright. Mr. Walton Ferguson was born at Stamford, Conn., on July 6th, 1842. He also attended Trinity College.
For several years he was in business with his father, John Ferguson, in New York, but lived at Stamford. Afterwards he moved to Pittsburgh, Pa., where he became associated in the coke business with his brother and Mr. H. C. Frick. In 1884 he returned to Stamford and made his home there until his death on April 7th, 1922. At Fishers Island he had his own home in the neighborhood of North Hill, commanding a beautiful view over the waters of the Sound and the Connecticut
shore. On the death of his brother, E. M. Ferguson, at Pittsburgh, Pa., on June 1 8th, 1904, he took over the other half of the Island, and ran it under the firm name of E. M. & W. Ferguson until July, 19 18, when it was incorporated under the name of the Fishers Island Farms, Inc. |
