History (German) |
William Henry Vanderbilt (1821-1885) war der Sohn des legendären Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt. William fing seine Karriere in einem Bankhaus an der Wall Street an. Gesundheitliche Gründe verschlugen ihn jedoch später wieder nach Staten Island. Dort war er zunächst als Farmer tätig. Diese unternehmerischen Fähigkeiten überzeugten seinen Vater. Daher übertrug er ihm die Leitung der Staten Island Rail-Road Company. Später setzte ihn sein Vater als Vizepräsident bei der Harlem-Linie ein. Bald war William Chef der wichtigsten Hudson-Linie. Nach dem Tod des Commodore übernahm William H. Vanderbilt die Herrschaft über das Familien-Imperium. | ||||||||

William Henry Vanderbilt (1821-1885) was the son of the legendary Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt. William commenced his career in a bank company in Wall Street. Health reasons, however, took him away back to Staten Island. Afterwards, he was working as farmer. These entrepreneurial skills convinced his father. That is why he handed over the management of the Staten Island Rail-Road Company to him. Later on, his father appointed him vice-president in the Harlem-Line. Soon enough, William was head of the most important Hudson-Line. After the death of the Commodore, William H. Vanderbilt took over the power of the family empire. | ||||||||
