Jump to: navigation search Previous (John II of France) Next (John James Audubon) John Jacob Astor detail of an oil painting by Gilbert Stuart, 1794 John Jacob Astor (July 17, 1763 - March 29, 1848) became the first American millionaire. He was the creator of the first Trust in America, from which he made his fortune in the fur trade, real estate, and opium. Astor was a very ambitious and shrewd businessman amassing a fortune in only six years. In 1808, he organized the American Fur Company in response to British Fur trading dominance in Canada . When he retired and sold his fur-trading business, he spent his time and money to improve the lives of others. He left an endowment of $400,000 to New York City for a public library, later known as the Astor Library. This library eventually became what is now the world-famous New York Public Library.

Astor, John Jacob (b. July 17, 1763, Waldorf, Ger.d. March 29, 1848, New York City), fur magnate and founder of a renowned family of Anglo-American capitalists, business leaders, and philanthropists. His American Fur Company is considered the first U.S. business monopoly. Astor started a fur-goods shop in New York City about 1786 after learning about the fur trade while aboard the ship that brought him to the U.S. Benefitting from a treaty between England and the U.S. (1794) that opened up new markets in Canada and the Great Lakes region, and from shrewd dealings with Indian tribes, he had by 1800 amassed $250,000 and become the leading figure in the fur trade. Given permission to trade in ports monopolized by the British East India Company, he made lucrative fur transactions in China (1800-17), but his plan to establish a network of fur-trading posts around Astoria (now in Oregon) failed when the British captured the post during the War of 1812. At the same time, however, Astor invested in New York City real estate that became the foundation of the family fortune. His son, William Backhouse Astor (1792-1875), greatly expanded the family real estate holdings, building more than 700 stores and dwellings in New York City. The wealthiest person in the U.S. at the time of his death, the senior Astor bequeathed $400,000 for the founding of a public library, the Astor Library, in New York City, which was consolidated with others as the New York Public Library in 1895.

Biography
American great-great grandson of John J. Astor, the fur merchant; fifth in line for the fabulous family fortune and a playboy in his own day. His parents were on the Titanic when it sank 4/15/1912. His dad drowned but his mom, who was five months pregnant with him, survived. In the years that followed, his mom, who twice remarried and died in 1940, seldom spoke of the tragedy. Astor didn't work most of his life; he married three times, divorced twice and had two children. He died June 26, 1995 in New York of unspecified causes. He was 82. Link to Wikipedia biography
