Dyer, Herman,
Theodore Parker Lukens (October 6, 1848 - July 1, 1918) was an American conservationist, real estate investor, civic leader, and forester who believed that burned over mountains could again be covered in timber which would protect watersheds. Lukens collected pine cones and seeds of different types and conducted experimental plantings on the mountain slopes above Pasadena, California. His perseverance earned him the name "Father of Forestry." In circa1884 he took his brother-in law, Herman Dyer, into partnership organizing the Lukens Land Company.
