Ping.

This stuff fits my Civil War theory pretty well. How about yours?

And from whence cometh David Rockefeller?

Why I believe it was New York. Funny that.

The Rockefeller family was of no significance until petroleum began replacing whale oil in oil lamps in the years following the Civil War. I can’t imagine any connection of the Rockefellers to the Civil War.

John D Rockefeller founded Standard Oil in Cleveland, Ohio where the family had moved when he was a boy. He later took the company headquarters to New York City, but then all large firms wanted to be in the financial capital of the country.
