Mrs "Hattie" Amelia (Sanger) Pullman

Associated Houses

George Pullman Mansion

Chicago

After her husband's death, she divided her time between the Pullman Mansion in Chicago; Castle Rest on Pullman Island in the Thousand Islands; Fairlawn at Elberon, New Jersey; and, her suite of rooms at the Raymond Hotel in Pasadena, California, where she rubbed shoulders with members of the Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Morgan families. Closely associated with the evangelist Billy Sunday, when Hattie died she gave the bulk of her fortune (about $12 million) to charity.
