  1. Snake River Land Company

    The Snake River Land Company was a real property land purchasing company established in 1927 by philanthropist John D. Rockefeller, Jr. . The company acted as a front so Rockefeller could buy land in the Jackson Hole valley in Wyoming without people knowing of his involvement or his intentions for the property, and have the land held until the National Park Service could administer it. The company launched a campaign to purchase more than 35,000 acres 142 km for 1.4 million but faced 15 years of opposition by ranchers and a refusal by the Park Service to take the land. Allegations that the company conspired with the Park Service by using illegal land purchasing tactics led to United States Senate subcommittee meetings in 1933 during which the company and the service were exonerated. Hard times during the Great Depression alleviated opposition by ranchers to sell. Discouraged by the stalemate, Rockefeller sent a letter to U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt Franklin D. Roosevelt telling him that if the federal government did not accept the land that it will be my thought to make some other disposition of it or to sell it in the market to any satisfactory buyers . Soon afterward on March 15, 1943 the president declared 221,000 acres 894 km of land as Jackson Hole National Monument. The land, however, did not enter federal stewardship until December 16, 1949 when it was added to the monument. The next year the monument was merged into the expanded Grand Teton National Park .

  1. Mississippi Land Company

    The Mississippi Land Company was a land company formed in 1763 following the Kingdom of Great Britain British victory in the French and Indian War 1754 1763 in North America. The company was formed to acquire land grants in the vast former New France region between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River ceded by France to Britain after the war. The Mississippi Land Company was formed by colonial Virginia ns including George Washington , John Augustine Washington , Richard Henry Lee , Arthur Lee , and William Fitzhugh . The company hoped to establish a new colony in the Mississippi Valley by petitioning the Crown for 2.5 million acres 10,000  km in what is now Illinois , Kentucky , and Tennessee , including where the Ohio River flows into the Mississippi. Their timing was poor, however, because the British government soon issued the Royal Proclamation of 1763 , which put a temporary halt to the western expansion of the British colonies. Although the boundary line established by the proclamation was extended westward in the following years, the Mississippi Company was never granted lands, and ceased to operate by about 1770.

  1. Seven Islands Land Company

    refimprove date May 2008 Seven Islands Land Company is a privately held land and timber management holding company based in Bangor, Maine . Seven Islands manages approximately 1 million acres 4,000  km of forest in northern and western Maine for dozens of members of the Pingree family, descendants of wealthy Salem, Massachusetts shipping magnate David Pingree nicknamed the Merchant Prince of Salem who began to acquire the Maine lands more than 150 years ago. Today, the family is believed to be the fourth largest private landowner in the United States, according to an analysis by http www.endgame.org landlords 100.html Worth magazine . Seven Islands is integrally tied to another family entity, Pingree Associates . The Pingree holdings date back to 1820, when Maine became a state. In that year, Pingree, correctly believing that his city would cease to be a major port, started purchasing vast tracts of softwoods and hardwoods as an investment hedge. Over the next 150 years, the Pingree holdings would reach 1 million acres 4,000  km and include over 2,000 miles 3200  km of shore frontage along major rivers and streams, more than 100 lakes, 24,800 acres 100  km of deer yards and 72,000 acres 290  km of wetland habitat. Development on Pingree lands, much of which surrounds Baxter State Park and the Allagash River , is heavily restricted. In 2001, Pingree Associates announced they had negotiated an arrangement with the New England Forestry Foundation to sell undevelopable easements on three quarters of their nearly 1 million acres 4,000  km . The remaining 250,000 acres 1,000  km were made available for limited development. The agreement created the largest conservation easement in American history, effectively putting an area larger than the state of Rhode Island off limits to development.
