From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jonathan Ogden Armour (1863-1927) was a Chicago meat-packing magnate of Armour and Company in the early 1900s, taking over for father Philip Danforth Armour. He also served as the treasurer of the Illinois State Council of Defense.
Armour built an Italian-style estate on 1,200 acres (4.9 km²) of farmland at Mellody Farms in Lake Forest, Illinois in 1908. This former estate is now part of the campus of Lake Forest Academy.
