3 Sherman S. Jewett was born in Moravia, N. Y., January 17, 1817. He came to Buffalo in May, 1834, and was engaged in the foundry of his mother's brother, Isaac Watts Skinner. In 1836 he began business for himself as a member of the firm of Day, Root & Co. (Franklin Day and Francis H. Root). After various firm changes the firm of Jewett & Root was formed in 1843 and continued until 1875, when Josiah Jewett was admitted. Mr. Root sold out to his partners in 1878 and the firm of Sherman S. Jewett & Co. (Henry C. and Josiah Jewett) was formed. Mr. Jewett was a Whig and Republican and identified himself with the leading interests of the city. He was one of the founders of the Bank of Buffalo, and a director in several other local banks. He was also conspicuous in railroad and steamboat interests. He died February 28, 1897.
