Cuppa coffee, please. (As a born Brooklynite woulda said in those days!)
I was struck by the reference to Plymouth Church in Brooklyn Heights and that John Arbuckle established an Arbuckle Memorial there upon me of his death in 1912. It's said he and his wife were members there. For sure, it's the mid-late 1800s militant abolitionist Henry Ward Beecher who stands out among Plymouth's preachers. But it seems that Newell Dwight Hillis would have overlapped as pastor/preacher during Arbuckle's time. Wiki describes Newell as a "supporter of eugenics" who organized national "Race Betterment" conferences. I wonder, this being true, how it was reflected in the membership.
Interesting question. I'll have to look into that sometime. I'm not familiar with him. Beecher, of course, was legendary, in ways both good and not so good.
Interesting article, thanks! Seems like Yuban at this point is just a brand that has been bought and sold a number of times over the decade, and the current Arbuckle Ariosa is a (separate) brand revival without any real connection to the original.
Edit: make that two competing companies! Must be some lawsuits going on
"Realizing that it was better for business to have an office in New York, where his coffee was coming from anyway, John moved north,"
North from . . . Pittsburgh? I guess it is technically a tiny bit south, but much more west of NY than south of it.
