Henry Augustus Hurlbut
page 339
HENRY AUGUSTUS HURLBUT, merchant, manufacturer and financier, was born i n Hartford, Conn., Dec. 8, 1808. He is the son of Ebenezer Hurlbut, who w as aprominent merchant of Hartford, Conn., and of Fanny Brewster Hurlbut , his wife, both members of old New England families. The ancestors of hi s father had made the Connecticut colony their home since 1637, the yea r in which Thomas Hurlbut, the pioneer, came to America to settle in Sayb rook and Wethersfield. On his mother's side, Mr. Hurlbut is descended dir ectly from Elder Brewster, a pilgrim of 1620, who arrived in the new worl d in that famous old ship, the historic Mayflower, to become one of the f ounders of Plymouth colony and a bosom friend ofGovernor Bradford.

BIOGRAPHY: The death of Ebenezer Hurlbut, when his son Henry was twelv e years of age, resulted in the latter having the advantages of a commo n school education only. But the young man was resolved to rise. By persi stent and personal efforts for self-cultivation, he largely broadened hi s training and laid the foundation of his future success. At the age of s ixteen, compelled to earn a living and appreciating the value of a trade , he apprenticed himself to a hat manufacturer in New Haven, Conn. He lea rned the business thoroughly. In 1828, his employer died. The industry, c apability and intrinsic worth of Mr. Hurlbut then led to his promotion t o the position of general superintendent and manager of the business. I n 1835, having made himself indispensable to the firm, he was admitted t o partnership, without the payment of capital, solely upon his own person al merits.

BIOGRAPHY: page 340
After much persuasion, Mr. Hurlbut induced his partner to open a branc h store in the city of New York, which was beginning to be the commercia l center of the United States. Mr. Hurlbut took charge of the store and c onducted it with such marked success that, in 1839, the entire business w as moved to New York.[p.340]

BIOGRAPHY: page 341
In 1843, believing his partner too conservative, Mr. Hurlbut associate d himself with the late John H. Swift, under the firm name of Swift & Hur lbut, and the new partnership soon took the position of the leading hous e in this trade in the United States. The Kossuth hat, so popular in 1851 , was a novelty originating with him. His firm engaged in its manufactur e on an extended scale, receiving great benefits there from, and from it s adoption dates the popularity of the soft felt hat in this country. I n 1860, the firm of Swift & Hurlbut dissolved by mutual consent, Mr. Hurl but retiring from active business with an ample fortune.

BIOGRAPHY: In 1832, Mr. Hurlbut married a New Haven lady, Susan Rebecc a Kennedy, of Scottish descent, and in 1882, their golden wedding was cel ebrated in Paris by an entertainment at which very many old friends wer e present. Mrs. Hurlbut died in 1888.

BIOGRAPHY: At an early period in his career, he evinced a decided aptitu de for the management of financial institutions. He was a progressive ma n and was called to many positions of trust and responsibility, in all o f which he had the good fortune to make a brilliant record. He was one o f the founders of The Second National Bank and its first president. He wa s also one of the incorporators of The Equitable Life Assurance Society a nd is now a member of its Finance Committee. He was one of the committe e selected to superintend the building of the present magnificent edific e at No. 120 Broadway. He has longbeen a trustee of The Mercantile Trus t Co., a director in The Home Fire Insurance Co. and The Mercantile Saf e Deposit Co., and long a member of the Chamber of Commerce. His name ha s added strength to every venture.
