The pair's father-in-law, Alexander Norris, first suggested that the two go into business together in 1837 and consequently Procter & Gamble was born.〔 Gamble died on April 29, 1891 from natural causes. He is interred in Spring Grove Cemetery in Cincinnati.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Spring Grove Cemetery )〕 Procter, who preceded his partner Gamble in death, is also buried at Spring Grove Cemetery. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Gamble (industrialist)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
