"Diversey – Michael Diversey bought an interest in Chicago’s first brewery from the first mayor, William Butler Ogden, in 1841. The business was successful enough to ship beer down the Mississippi River and to Wisconsin. Less important than his work with beer, Diversey also served as an alderman and donated land for several religious institutions."
