(A sketch of the Widener family follows). Founded in 1821 by John Bullock, a leading Quaker, the College began as a select school for boys in Wilmington, Delaware. In contrast to the pacifism of its founder's religious beliefs, his successors introduced military instruction in 1858 and four years later the school became known as Pennsylvania Military Academy. The early curriculum extended from preparatory through college. In 1892, the school, by then located on its present suburban Chester campus, assumed the name Pennsylvania Military College. The long tradition as an exclusively military college ended in 1946 with the admission of returning World War II veterans as non-cadet students. And, in 1967, an even longer tradition was broken when the formerly all-male institution admit­ ted its first female students. To reflect this evolution into a co-educational, predominantly liberal arts col­ lege, the name was changed to PMC Colleges, with Penn Morton College being the designation for the non-military component and Pennsylvania Military College being retained as the name for the cadet corps. During its 155 years, the College has continuously kept pace with the changing needs of our complex American society. In 1970, it acquired the College of Nursing of the Crozer Foundation. When the name Widener College was adopted and the Corps of Cadets discontinued, the Board of Trustees voted to retain the enriched Option C ROTC program. In June, 1975, the College acquired via merger the Delaware Law School, Wilmington, Del., thus enriching its graduate offerings. In November, 1976, the Board of Trustees for Widener College and the Board of Trustees for Brandywine Junior College became synonymous. Brandywine Junior College continues to be operated as a separate two-year college. The Delaware institution will share its campus with the law school, which will move onto its new site by January 1978 under present planning. Today, Widener College offers career-oriented studies in science, engineering, business and management, nursing, human services and the liberal arts; and gradu­ ate programs in engineering, business and law. The emphasis of all studies, regard­ less of the undergraduate major selected, is placed on the development of personal values and goals as well as enrichment through interdisciplinary studies. Widener students are preparing themselves for future leadership roles in their careers and their communities. 10 Profile: Widener Family The Widener family, for whom the College is named, is as famous for its philan­ thropy and collections of art and rare books as it is for its contributions to American business, finance, transportation and thoroughbred horse racing. The Wideners were among the first American families to exhibit a strong social consciousness and share their great wealth with society.

ELk'.'.PA,I HISTORIC AMERICAN BUILDINGS SURVEY $- LYNNEWOOD HALL HABS No. PA-6146 Location: 920 Spring Avenue, Elkins Park, Montgomery Co., Pennsylvania. Significance: Lynnewood Hall, designed by famed Philadelphia architect Horace Trumbauer in 1898, survives as one of the finest country houses in the Philadelphia area. The 110-room mansion was built for street-car magnate P.A.B. Widener to house his growing family and art collection which would later become internationally renowned. 1 The vast scale and lavish interiors exemplify the remnants of an age when Philadelphia's self-made millionaire industrialists flourished and built their mansions in Cheltenham, apart from the Main Line's old society. Description: Lynnewood Hall is a two-story, seventeen-bay Classical Revival mansion that overlooks a terraced lawn to the south. The house is constructed of limestone and is raised one­ half story on a stone base that forms a terrace around the perimeter of the building. The mansion is a "T" plan with the front facade forming the cross arm of the "T". Enclosed semi­ circular loggias extend from the east and west ends of the cross arm and a three-story wing forms the leg of the 'T' to the north. The most imposing exterior feature is the full-height, five-bay Corinthian portico with a stone staircase and a monumental pediment.

  • Widener Family Fortune
    Widener Family Fortune The pictured mausoleum is now the residence of all the heirs to the original Widener Family fortune. In 2006 Eugene Fitzgerald Dixon, Jr. passed away and with him the direct descendants of the 27th richest American ever. The Widener family according to Scott Winslow is ranked above Bill Gates and Warren Buffett in the wealth department. Winslow looks at overall wealth as compared to the GNP. The Widener family's riches equaled 1/387th of the GNP at the time Peter A.B. Widener was alive. This measure in my opinion is the single best way to compare wealth over different generations and time periods. The top folks on this list are John D. Rockefeller by far along with Cornelius Vanderbilt. The Widener Family Patriarch Peter Arrell Brown Widener made his first business venture during the Civil War. He invested in providing meat to the Union Army during the way. This was a risky investment at the time because it was not clear if the Union Army would be able to pay its bills and sustain its economy if the south won and became its own country. As history would show the investment was a good one, the Union won the war and Peter Widener made a great the investment that would launch an empire that would span well into the 20th and 21st Century. Peter continued to invest his money in interesting and innovative business ventures. His most profitable turned out to be Philadelphia Traction Company which pioneered public transportation, and to this day makes royalties on patents it owns.
