Samuel Ingham Merrill (November 15, 1856-July 1932) was a noted California businessman and philanthropist, known particularly for his involvement in Christian benevolent work. He is credited with founding the YMCA of Oakland, and later, the YMCA of Los Angeles in 1882 (), which celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2007.〔http://www.ymcala.org YMCA of Los Angeles〕 ==History== Merrill was born in Buffalo, New York, on November 15, 1856, son of Jerome Bonaparte Merrill and Jane Hughes. He was educated in the public schools of Buffalo and took employment with a Buffalo grain dealer. Due to his younger brother's health issues, Merrill accompanied his brother and their mother to California for treatment, arriving in Oakland on September 11, 1876. In 1888, he married Sarah DeEtta Dearborn in East Oakland. They had three children: Grace Edith (Jensen), Charles Arthur, and Wallace Dearborn. In 1876, Merrill began his own grocery business, but soon took employment with San Francisco bankers and brokers, Haley and Hopkins, becoming manager in 1878, and later becoming an officer in several corporations owned by Mark Hopkins.
