Russell Stover : ウィキペディア英語版 | Russell Stover Russell Stover (May 6, 1888 – May 11, 1954) was an American chemist and entrepreneur, and the founder of Russell Stover Candies. ==Early life== Russell William Stover was born in a sod house south of Alton, Kansas, in Osborne County, one of three children of John and Sarah Stover. His mother died when he was young, and the family moved to Iowa City, Iowa, where he attended Iowa City Academy and Iowa State University and studied chemistry. He then became a salesman in Chicago, first for a candy company, and then for a tobacco company. In 1911, Stover married Clara Mae Lewis, whom he had met at the Iowa City Academy, and they moved to a farm in Saskatchewan, Canada, which they received as a wedding gift. On the farm, they raised wheat and flax, but after a year, they considered the venture to have been a failure, and in 1912, they moved to Winnipeg. Stover then re-entered the candy industry. He first went to work for a Minnesota candy company and then for the A. G. Morris Candy Company in Chicago. In 1918, the couple moved to Des Moines, where Stover worked for the Irwin Candy Company, and then they moved to Omaha, Nebraska.〔(International Directory of Company Histories, Vol. 12. St. James Press, 1996 )〕
