Edward Pease (railway pioneer)
Edward Pease (1767–1858), a woollen manufacturer from Darlington, England, was the main promoter of the Stockton and Darlington Railway, which opened in 1825. He is often referred to as the "Father of the Railways".
==Background and education==
Pease was born on 31 May 1767, the eldest son of the Darlington woollen manufacturer Joseph Pease and his wife, Mary Richardson. The family were prominent Quakers: his brother Joseph Pease (1772–1846) was a founder of the Peace Society in 1817 and involved in the second, 1839 Anti-Slavery Society, for which he wrote tracts. Edward boarded at a school in Leeds run by Joseph Tatham the elder, and then joined his father's woollen business at the age of 15. On 30 November 1796, he married a fellow Quaker, Rachel (died 1833), daughter of John Whitwell, of Kendal. They had five sons and three daughters.〔ODNB entries for Edward Pease and Joseph Pease (Retrieved 31 July 2011. Subscription required ); ]〕
