BIOGRAPHICAL STATEMENT

 

Edward Howe Wales was the son of Salem Howe Wales and Frances Elizabeth Johnson and was born in New York City on May 28, 1856.  He attended a private day school in the city and graduated from Columbia University in 1877.  On December 17, 1885 he married Ruth Holmes Hawks; they had one daughter, Ruth, who married Henry Francis du Pont. Wales was associated with his father in patent work and became an assistant examiner in the U.S. Patent Office.  About 1880, he became a stockbroker.  During World War I, Wales served as a Lieutenant Commander in U.S. Naval Intelligence.  His hobby was yachting.

 

 

SCOPE AND CONTENT

Hawks, Blair Gist, Henry Francis du Pont, Ruth Wales du Pont, John Hay, Thomas Nast, Frederic Remington, Elihu Root, Elihu Root, Jr., William K. Vanderbilt, Army and Navy Club of America, Columbia College, Fifth Avenue Bank of New York, Goldfield Deep Mines Company of Nevada, Hyde Park Ice Yacht Club, Larchmont Yacht Club, Metropolitan Club, New York Club, and the White Star Line.  Also included are engineering and artistic drawings done by Wales and passenger lists for the White Star Liner, Germanic (1878), and the S.S.
