Cazenove, Anthony Charles, 1775-1852
Anthony Charles Cazenove was the second son of Paul Cazenove and Jeanne Elizabeth Martin. He was born in Geneva, Switzerland in 1775. In 1790, he went to London to work in the counting of house of James Cazenove & Co. Anthony Charles and his brother, John Anthony (Jean-Antoine) emigrated to Philadelphia, Pa. in 1794 to escape repercussions of the French Revolution. His cousin, Theophile Cazenove, helped him establish business contacts in a land company upon his arrival. Soon after, he became a partner in the firm, Albert Gallatin & Co. A distinguished merchant and financier, Anthony Charles was one of the original subscribers to stock of the first United States Bank. He eventually settled in Alexandria, Va., where he served as an elder in the Presbyterian Church.
In 1797, Anthony Charles married Anne Hogan. They had nine children. The oldest, Eliza Frances, married William Gardner of Newport, R.I. Their daughter, Anna Eliza, married Cassius F. Lee in 1846, linking the Cazenove and Lee families. Anthony Charles' son, Louis Albert, was active in his father's mercantile firm.
