  • Flora Text 2
    Her Fathers’ Daughter: Flora Stone Mather and Her Gifts to Cleveland Cleveland’s best-known woman philanthropist took no credit for her generosity: “I feel so strongly that I am one of God’s stewards. Large means without effort of mine, have been put into my hands; and I must use them as I know my Heavenly Father would have me, and as my dear earthly father would have me, were he here.” 1 So Flora Stone Mather described the inspirations for her giving: her Presbyterian belief in stewardship - serving (and saving) others - and the example of her father, Amasa Stone. But she expanded her role as dutiful daughter, moving beyond conventional philanthropy into political reform and institution-building. Flora Stone, born in 1852, was the third child of Amasa and Julia Gleason Stone. Her family - parents, brother Adelbert, and sister Clara - moved to Cleveland from Massachusetts in 1851. Her father, a self-taught engineer, built churches, then bridges and railroads, which made his fortune. He arrived in Cleveland as superintendent of the Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati Railroad, which he had built with two partners. He subsequently directed and built other railroad lines and invested in the city’s burgeoning industries and banks. Thanks to its railroads and lake shipping, petroleum refineries, and iron and steel mills, Cleveland would become an industrial giant. In 1858, Stone built an elaborate Italianate mansion on Euclid Avenue, a sign that he had arrived socially and financially. He became an ardent Republican and an enthusiastic supporter of the Union side of the Civil War.
