Edward Stiles Stokes

Edward Stiles Stokes (1840–1901) was the owner of a New York oil refinery who in 1872 shot and killed his business partner and love rival James Fisk. Stokes was tried three times and found guilty of manslaughter in the third degree, serving four years in prison. Later he became the proprietor of the fashionable Hoffman House Hotel.
==Early life==
His father was Edward Halesworth Stokes, who had owned a New York cloth business.〔The cloth business was in partnership with his brother James Boulter Stokes and had been started by their father, Thomas Stokes, who had arrived from England in about 1798.〕 By 1838 the father had made sufficient money to retire and move with his wife, Nancy Stiles, to Philadelphia.〔Nancy Stiles was from Philadelphia and descended from Richard Stockton, lieutenant in 1665 of the Long Island Troop of Horse〕 Their son, Edward Stiles Stokes, was born on April 27, 1840. He was educated in Philadelphia and later New York before starting business, first in a junior position with Samuel Perry, and later in partnership with Jenks Budlong, manufacturing and selling cheese. In 1862 he married Maria Southack, daughter of John W. Southack, wealthy furniture manufacturer of New York.〔Newspaper reporting the murder of James Fisk and the ensuing court case, referred to Stokes father-in-law as J. W. Southwich.〕
