Notes for GEORGE PEPPER:
#2060
George Pepper, born 15 March, 1779, was educated for mercantile life and entered the counting house of the eminent merchants Willing & Francis, where he was becoming well equipped for a successful business career, when, owing to the death of his elder brother, Philip, in 1800 he was called at the age of twenty-one, to assist his father in the conduct of his extensive brewery interests.

He inherited large means from his father, which, by sagacity and industry, he converted into still greater wealth, until, with the single exception, possibly of
Stephen Girard, he became the richest citizen of his day. His town house on the north side of Chestnut Street below Eighth, had a garden which was a picture of good taste and science with a greenhouse, the first built in Philadelphia.

Early in life Mr. Pepper owned the "Plantation House," the present site of the United States Naval Asylum, the one time country seat of James Pemberton, who died in 1808. Later he had a beautiful suburban seat, known as "Fairy Hill," near the ground on Ridge Road, now occupied by the Laurel Hill Cemetery. He paid much attention to horticulture and had a fine nursery of fruit and other trees. His collection of camelias numbering twenty-eight or more varieties was, perhaps, the finest in the United States.

His death is referred to editorically in The United States Gazette of January 8, 1846: "We learn that George Pepper, Esq., died on Tuesday night, at his residence on Chestnut St. below Eighth. Mr. Pepper was among the most respected and wealthy of our citizens, perhaps the wealthiest. He lived an irreproachable life and amid all the vicissitudes of the time, sustained a lofty integrity." Professor Thorpe's "Biographical Memoir of William Pepper" con-
tains a St. Memin portrait of George Pepper and says of him, in part:
Long before he reached middle life he was one of the wealthiest men in the City...His large estate has been the source of many benefactions to the City of Philadelphia. Several millions derived from it have been devoted by gift and bequest to public uses, of which the best known are the city hospitals, the free public library and the University of Pennsylvania. No other estate, accumulated in Philadelphia, during the first half of the Nineteenth Centrury, excepting that
of Stephen Girard, has contributed so generously to science and education. His widow, Mrs. Mary (Seckel) Pepper, reached the advanced age of eighty-one years possessing remarkable energy and activity of mind and body and devoting herself up to her very last days to the good and happiness of others."
