Eliot: A Short Biography Thomas Stearns Eliot was born on September 26, 1888 in St. Louis, Missouri, to Henry Ware and Charlotte Stearns Eliot. Henry Ware Eliot was the son of the Reverend William Greenleaf Eliot. Reverend Eliot was originally from Boston, Massachusetts. He relocated to St. Louis, Missouri in 1834. At the time, St. Louis was a frontier town with a heavily Irish Catholic population. Reverend Eliot was a Unitarian minister and founded the First Congregational (Unitarian) Church of St. Louis. He was dedicated to encouraging academic as well as religious study. He founded two preparatory schools in St. Louis: the Smith Academy for boys and the Mary Institute for girls. In 1857, he founded Washington University and served as its President from 1871 until his death in 1887. Although he died before his grandson’s birth, Reverend Eliot was influential in his grandson’s life. Reverend Eliot wanted his sons to follow his example and become 1 Unitarian ministers. Henry Ware Eliot resisted this pressure and went into business. Henry first worked at Reed and Green Wholesale Grocers with a modicum of success. He then became partners in Eliot and Larkin, a manufacturing chemist firm, where they produced acetic acid. Unfortunately, this business was not successful and Henry was forced to file bankruptcy.
