Elihu Yale Dzimšanas diena, dzimšanas datums

Elihu Yale

Elihu Yale (5 April 1649 – 8 July 1721) was a British-American colonial administrator.

Born in Boston, Massachusetts, Yale lived in America only as a child, and spent the rest of his life in England, Wales, and India.

He became a clerk for the East India Company at Fort St. George, later Madras, and eventually rose to the Presidency of the settlement. He was later removed from the post under charges of corruption for self-dealing, and required to pay a fine.

In 1699, he returned to Britain with a considerable fortune, around £200,000 (equivalent to £35.3 million in 2023), mostly made by selling diamonds, and spent his time and wealth in philanthropy and art collecting.

He was the primary benefactor of Yale College, now Yale University, which was named in his honor, following a donation of books, portraits, and textiles at the request of Rev. Cotton Mather, a Harvard University graduate. He had no male heir, and no descendants of his have survived past his grandchildren.

In the 21st century, Yale's connections to slavery in India began to be more closely explored, a process assisted by the digitalisation and online publication of the East India Company's records. In 2020, Peter Salovey, president of Yale University, launched the Yale and Slavery Research Project to explore the university's historical links with slavery and colonialism, including Elihu Yale's role.
