  • Notes 
    • A Boston merchant and banker who grew wealthy on railroad investments.

      From the Diary of Charles Francis Adams, 24 July 1836:

      "In the evening Mr. and Mrs. I. Sargent came in for the first time. There appears to be a disposition on their part to cultivate our society which I would not reject, and yet to me he is not interesting."
