Background:Why these 1 to 14 blogs on George Peabody?The authors attended George Peabody College for Teachers, Nashville (renamed Peabody College of Vanderbilt Univ. July 1, 1979).Franklin Parkers doctoral dissertation, George Peabody, Founder of Modern Philanthropy, 1956, has been an ongoing research and writing interest for over 50 years.The authors intent is to perpetuate public memory of him.

George Peabody, now largely forgotten by scholars and the public, was significant as: 1-a Massachusetts-born merchant in the U.S. South, beginning as junior partner in Riggs, Peabody & Co. (1814-29); then head of Peabody, Riggs & Co. (1829-43), importing dry goods and other commodities worldwide for sale to U.S. wholesalers.He transformed himself from merchant into: 2-a London-based merchant-banker, George Peabody & Co. (1838-64), which helped finance the B&O RR, the 2nd Mexican War Loan, the Atlantic Cable, and by choosing Junius Spencer Morgan (1813-90) as partner Oct. 1, 1854, was a root of the JP Morgan international banking firm.

Merchant-turned-banker George Peabody finally became:3-the best known U.S. philanthropist of the 1850s-60s, founding the Peabody Homes of London for the working poor; founder in the U.S. of 7 Peabody Libraries and Lecture Halls; the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Baltimore; three Peabody Museums at Harvard (Anthropology), Yale (Paleontology), and the Peabody Essex Museum, Salem, MA (maritime history);and founder of the Peabody Education Fund for the South (1867-1914), a model for all later larger U.S. funds and foundations.

Two tributes to George Peabody:

Historian John Steele Gordon called George Peabody the Most Underrated Philanthropist.Peabody is unjustly forgotten today, but his unprecedented generosity was greatly appreciated in his time.Ref.:American Heritage. Vol. 50, No. 3 (May-June 1999), pp. 68-69.

The Peabody Fund, established in 1867 by George Peabody to assist southern education, is often credited with being the first foundation.Ref.:Readers Companion to American History, ed. by Eric Foner and John A. Garraty (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1991).Internet: http://HistoryChannel.com/

New York Herald, Oct. 6, 1856, p. 4, c. 6 (Editor James Gordon Bennetts critical-satirical reportage on GPs 1856-57 U.S. visit: the purer air of this country is taking silly notions from Americans corrupted abroad.We wish his dinners, balls, feasts in Richmond Hill [in greater London] had been conducted with equal modesty and propriety.Had he done this he would not be the jest of London and the sorrow of thinking people here.But he grows wiser as he grows older).

New York Herald, Oct. 10, 1856, p. 1, c. 4-6, continued p. 8 (Article covering the Oct. 9 GP celebration in Danvers had three columns on page 1 and continued inside.Editor James Gordon Bennett complained of paying between $200 and $300 in telegraph bills).

New York Herald, Oct. 11, 1856, p. 4, c. 3 (Last spring we [Bennett] were in London and received one of the first invitations to Mr. Peabodys entertainment at Richmond Hill on River Thames at which were Americans, a few silly baronets, and a noodle of a Lord.Ex-President Fillmore and W. W. Corcoran were there.We could not accept it, because about that time we were busy with Lord Palmerston and Lord Clarendon; but we have now the pleasure of returning the generous, though sometimes silly, Peabody.Besides conferring on Danvers the favor of being born there, he gave thirty or forty thousand dollars for a lyceum.Peter Cooper gave a larger sum of $200, 000 yet New York never made such a fuss over him as Danvers over George Peabody.His speech was good.He did not break down as he does in London, which shows he has acquired more strength in his backbone and more continuity in eloquence).

New YorkHerald, Oct. 13, 1856, p. 4, c. 4 (The philosophy of Mr. Peabodys dinners is that he who gives the finest dinners to his customers makes the most money.Being a shrewd Yankee George Peabody does his own drumming, banquets his customers and their friends, sprinkles in a lord or two, a knight or baronet, sometimes a hungry member of Parliament.Inferior speeches and toasts do not matter as long as the turtle is good and the champagne sparkling.The immense sum spent for this purpose, to advertise the house of Peabody and bring trade to the shop, brings a hundred-fold return.The idea that his dinners had the least influence on Anglo-American diplomatic relations is so amusing that Edward Everett had to laugh when his speech touched upon it).
