Everett Colby (December 10, 1874 – June 19, 1943) was a member of the New Jersey Assembly and the New Jersey Senate. ==Biography== He was born in Milwaukee on December 10, 1874. The son of Charles L. Colby, builder of the Wisconsin Central Railroad, he inherited wealth and the associations of big business. He attended the Browning School. Browning said that Colby was a good sportsman, like others of his privileged class, but a poor scholar who had great difficulty concentrating or reading. He claimed that he stirred his desire for real work by teaching him woodwork.〔(Lincoln Steffens (1909) ''Upbuilders'', Doubleday, Page & Company, New York )〕 On leaving school, Colby attended Brown University where John D. Rockefeller was one of his classmates. He was still an avid sportsman and played tennis, golf, baseball and football and was football captain in his senior year. He graduated in 1897. His father died the next year and Everett made a tour of the world. He then studied law and played polo. He married and settled down in Llewellyn Park, Orange, New Jersey.
