Yes. W. Averell Harriman was the son of E. H. Harriman who founded the Union Pacific Railroad and was partners on many ventures with the Rockefeller family.

Averell Harriman founded Brown Brothers Harriman which had as key executives George Herbert Walker and Prescott Bush. Harriman was a far left billionaire Democrat; however, all of his tended to be Republicans (many of them were in Skull & Bones at Yale as Harriman was).
