Adrian G Iselin
Adrian Georg Iselin (1818-1905) was a New York financier who invested in and developed real estate, railroads, and mining operations. Iselin was born of Swiss ancestry in 1818. For many years during his early business career he was engaged in importing with his brother, William Iselin, being one of the most successful merchants of New York in the middle of the century. After retiring from the importing trade, he established the banking house of Adrian Iselin & Co., but has been entirely out of active business since 1883.
==Early life==
In 1845 married Elanora O'Donnell of Baltimore, the daughter of General Columbus O'Donnell and his wife Eleanora. Her father was at the head of one of the foremost families of that city, and was a leading financier of Maryland, being connected with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and other important corporations.
Iselin eventually became the chief investor in the Rochester and Pittsburgh Coal and Iron Company. At the outbreak of the Civil War his Wall Street firm of A. Iselin and Company was so strong that it helped to finance the United States Government. Before his involvement with coal in Pennsylvania, Iselin was one of the directors of the Sioux City and St. Paul Railroad Company in Minnesota. The town of Adrian, Minnesota, which developed after completion of the rail lines, was named after his mother, Mrs. Adrian Iselin. 〔(Adrian, Minnesota Local History )〕
