Bishop, David Wolfe.
Biographical notes:
David Wolfe Bishop (d. 1900) was a diarist from Lenox, Massachusetts. Little is known of Bishop apart from details from his obituary in the New York Times : he married Florence Van Cortlandt (who married John E. Parsons after Bishop's death) and had two sons, Cortlandt Field Bishop (1870-1935) and David Wolfe Bishop, who committed suicide in Paris in 1911. He was a member of the Knickerbocker, the Union, the Riding, the New York Yacht and the Metropolitan Clubs. He was also a member of the St. Nicholas Society, and the Sons of the American Revolution. Upon his death on May 1, 1900, Bishop held valuable properties in New York worth over one million dollars.
