Thomas A. O'Donnell : ウィキペディア英語版 | Thomas A. O'Donnell
Thomas Arthur O'Donnell (June 26, 1870 – February 21, 1945), was an Irish American pioneer in the California oil industry along with Edward L. Doheny, Charles A. Canfield and Max H. Whittier who became known as the "big four." == Early life == O'Donnell was born in McKean, Erie County, Pennsylvania to Thomas O'Donnell and Myra Parsons, where he worked for some time as a newsboy until the age 12 when he left Pennsylvania and arrived in Florence, Colorado. He remained there for two years working in an all-around capacity as a grocery store clerk. With his ambitions extending beyond the grocery store, O'Donnell went to work in a gold mine and for the next five years, with pick and shovel, became a very experienced miner by the age of 19. In 1889 he gave up mining and headed to California where he obtained a position at the Union Oil Company in Ventura County remaining there for four years where he mastered the oil business.〔
