The Lake Copper Company was incorporated in Michigan on November 27, 1905. The company owned over 2,010 acres in Michigan's copper belt, including 1,150 acres of mineral land, 680 acres of timber lands and 180 acres of cutover lands. |
William A. Paine
Born in Amesbury, Massachusetts, William A. Paine was the son of Albert Paine and Sarah (Sergeant) Paine. He began his career in finance in 1873 as a clerk at a bank in Boston. In 1880, with a loan from his father, he partnered with Wallace G. Webber to create the brokerage firm, Paine, Webber & Company. They became members of both the Boston and New York Stock Exchanges. Outside of building a successful brokerage business, Paine was involved in the major mining venture, the Copper Range Consolidated Company in the "Copper Country" of Michigan. In 1899, he invested in the Copper Range Consolidated Company and helped arrange the financing for the company. He then served as president of the company. |
