- Wells
Fargo - Those striking images of stagecoaches traversing
rugged mountain terrain are no mere marketing gimmick, but
part and parcel of Wells Fargo's storied past. When Henry
Wells and William Fargo founded the company in 1852, the gold
rush had already brought thousands of people to California
and uncovered the largest amount of wealth then known to the
world. Wells Fargo served a unique role as a banking, express
or transporting, and mail-delivery agency. In 1857, the company
helped establish the Overland Mail Company; in 1861, it operated
the Pony Express; and in 1866, it put together a 3,000-mile
network of stagecoaches running between California and Nebraska.
Three decades later, Wells Fargo covered the nation over a
web of iron rails. Miners and merchants, ranchers and farmers
alike depended on Wells Fargo. The company always used the
fastest means possible for its deliveries and fund transfers,
whether by riverboat, ocean
steamer, pony express, stagecoach, railroad, or the fastest
method of all, the telegraph.
