Elias Charles Disney (February 6, 1859-1941), was the father of Roy and Walt Disney.

Early life

In what is now Ontario, Canada, Disney was born in the rural village of Bluevale to Irish immigrants Kepple Elias Disney (1832–1891) and Mary Disney (1838–1909). Both parents immigrated from Freshford, County Kilkenny, Ireland, as children, accompanying their parents. In the ensuing 18 years after Elias' birth, his parents would have eight other children. To make money, Disney's father owned a farm and ventured into a variety of other entrepreneurial ventures.

In 1878, he and his father immigrated to California in the hopes of locating gold. Rather, Kepple was persuaded by an Union Pacific Railroad agent to purchase 200 acres (81 ha) of land near Ellis, Kansas. With the exception of Elias, the family would have let go of their earlier conservative ways when they moved. Disney tried to live in Ellis as an orange grower but failed.

Disney spent his father's new farm until 1884, when he left to seek a new career. He was hired in a railroad machine shop for the Kansas Pacific Railroad (one of his coworkers was Walter Chrysler), then he joined the railroad crew constructing the Union Pacific line through Colorado. He became a professional fiddle player in Denver after the railroad deal came to an end. He was unsuccessful once more, and he returned to his father's farm.

Annie, his sister, would teach at the Beaver Bank School in Ellis, which opened in 1884. Elias would occasionally substitute for his sister, and it was here that he began to understand and eventually develop a friendship with Flora Call, one of her students. Flora's parents will sell their Ellis property and move to Akron, Florida with Disney after suiting to be with Flora. On January 1, 1888, Disney and Flora married in Akron. The marriage license that was issued would be Lake County's first marriage license. During the "tourist season of 1888," Disney and his wife would relocate to Daytona Beach and manage the Halifax Hotel, but they were left homeless and kicked out of their rooms. Herbert Herbert Herbert Herbert, a descendant of Thomas Ayne, was expected to have a son in December 1888. He served as a mailman in Kissimmee, Florida, near the eventual home of Walt Disney World. In Kissimmee, Disney attempted to work as an orange grower but was unsuccessful. At this time, he would flies to Chicago, Florida, rather than Florida in the late spring of 1890. Although occasionally unsuccessful at self-employment, Disney's entrepreneurial tendencies were passed on to his son Walt.

He'll be a building worker for the 1893 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago, which author Erik Larson claims was a source of inspiration for his son Walt and the Disney kingdom that he'll eventually create. He bought shares of O-Zell Company, a jelly-canning plant that also produced apple juice in Chicago, where his son Walt Disney worked before joining the Red Cross Ambulance Corps in World War I. By 1890, the family would reside at 3515 South Vernon Avenue in the Fourth Ward. Disney bought a lot at 1249 Tripp Avenue by 1891, but by 1892, he had built a house on it. The neighborhood was named Hermosa and had been settled by Scottish, German, and Scandinavian immigrants. The younger three children were born in the United States. On June 24, 1893, the family would move into the new home on Tripp Avenue, where they would give birth to Roy O. Disney shortly thereafter. Mickey intended to name him Columbus, but Flora wanted him to be named Roy instead, and Roy was chosen. There would be questions about deciding on a middle name. On Tripp Avenue, Flora saw a lumber truck painted with the brand name of Oliver Lumber Company painted across the sides of the vehicle. After seeing this car, Elias and Flora would have chosen Oliver as Roy's middle name.

Disney had established itself as a full building contractor by the time the century came about. He built houses for him and then resold them. He also built the Saint Paul Congregational Church, which was dedicated on October 14, 1900. Disney was one of the church's trustees, but his wife was its treasurer.

Two adolescent children were killed in a car barn robbery, and Disney was worried that the deposition would bring taint his own children. He purchased a 40-acre (16 ha) farm near Marceline, Missouri, for $3,000, or $75 per acre, on March 5, 1906. William E. Crane, the building's previous owner, died in November 1905. Crane was a veteran of the American Civil War and his house predates the establishment of Marceline. Disney bought an adjoining tract of about 5 acres (2 ha) from Crane's widow on April 3, a $50 cost. Marceline was still accessible from Chicago but it was in a rural setting, and Disney's younger brother Robert owned a 440-acre (180 ha) farm west of the city. In April, Disney and his family moved to the farm.

Apple, peaches, and plums or plums or plums were among the Crane Farm's orchards of apples, peaches, and plums, as well as fields of grain. The farm animals were raised in the United States: pigs, chickens, horses, and cows. By 1907, the Disneys had a telephone connection. In 1907, Disney convinced several of his fellow farmers to join the American Society of Equity, a farmer's union formed in the hope of increasing the members' purchasing power.

Herbert and Raymond Disney never liked life on the farm. They migrated out about 1908 and returned to Chicago, where they found jobs as clerks.

On November 28, 1910, the family sold the farm as Disney fell ill. He had typhoid fever and pneumonia, and pneumonia had followed. The Disneys lived in a rented house in Marceline, most likely at 508 North Kansas Avenue. They migrated to Kansas City, Missouri, in 1911, but not before. They lived in a rented house on 2706 East Thirty-first Street. They stayed there until they bought their first modest house in September 1914. It was located at 3028 Bellefontaine Street.

On July 1, 1911, Disney purchased a newspaper delivery route for The Kansas City Star. It went from the Twenty-seventh Street to the Thirty-first Street, and from Prospect Avenue to Indiana Avenue. The newspapers were delivered to Roy and Walt. The Disneys sold the morning newspaper Kansas City Times to 700 customers, as well as the evening and Sunday Star to more than 600. Customers increased with time. Butter and eggs were also delivered to his newspaper customers. They were brought from a Marceline dairy farm.

On March 17, 1917, Disney began selling newspapers. He had been investing in the O-Zell Company of Chicago since 1912 and then returned to the city in 1917 to play a lead in the company's administration. On 1523 Ogden Avenue, the Disneys rented a house.

In 1920, he resigned from management and moved back to Kansas City. He had been branded a carpenter once more. He came from Portland, Oregon, by the fall (autumn September-October) of 1921. Herbert, his son, had earlier come to this city.

Flora Call married in Kismet, Florida, 50 miles (80 kilometers) north of the land on which Walt Disney World would eventually be built and lived for a short time in neighboring Acron, Florida. She was the daughter of his father's neighbors.

The Disneys migrated to Chicago, Illinois, where Disney met and befriended Walter Parr, the fourth son of St. Paul Congregational Church, for whom the Disneys' fourth son, Walt, was named, shortly after marriage.

The couple had five children:

Disney was a member of the Congregational Church and delivered stern sermons on Sundays in this congregation. Walter Elias Disney, the son of a Congregationalist minister named Walter Parr, was named after him. Disney never saw Walt's work as an artist as a legitimate occupation.

After his father Elias Charles Disney, Disneyland's son Raymond Arnold Disney named Charles Elias Disney.

Disney died in Los Angeles on September 13, 1941, at the age of 82. He is buried in Glendale, California, at Forest Lawn Memorial Park.

Never drank alcohol and rarely smoked. Disney was a stern man with a tense temper and would borrow the money his sons earned for "safekeeping" because they were too young to know the value of money, according to biographical accounts. If his children were misdeed, Disney would not hesitate to sue them with a switch.

Eugene Debs' ardent socialist and a promoter of Eugene Debs. Disney will consult with various individuals to bring them home and discuss socialism. He was a fiddler and would bring home anyone else who could play an instrument.

Career

Before 1884, Disney lived on his father's new farm before he moved to find another job. He was employed in a railroad machine shop for the Kansas Pacific Railroad (one of his coworkers was Walter Chrysler), then he joined the railroad crew constructing the Union Pacific railway line through Colorado. Since the railroad deal came to an end, he became a professional fiddle player in Denver. He was unsuccessful once more, and he returned to his father's farm.

Annie, his brother, would be a teacher at the Beaver Bank School in Ellis, which opened in 1884. Elias would often step in as a substitute teacher for his sister, and here he began to learn and eventually develop a friendship with Flora Call, one of her children. Flora's parents will sell their Ellis land and move to Akron, Florida with Disney after she graduated, as she longs to be with Flora. On January 1, 1888, Disney and Flora were married in Akron. The marriage license that was issued would be Lake County's first marriage license. During the "tourist season of 1888," Disney and his wife would move to Daytona Beach and operate the Halifax Hotel, but the two children were left homeless when the owner no longer needed a manager and kicked them out of their rooms. Herbert Herbert Herbert, his son, would have appeared in December 1888. He served in Kissimmee, Florida, near the future home of Walt Disney World. In Kissimmee, Disney attempted to work as an orange grower, but he was unsuccessful. He'd move to Chicago after this, leaving Florida in the late spring of 1890. Though often unsuccessful at self-employment, Disney's entrepreneurial instincts were passed on to his son Walt.

He would build a model for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, which author Erik Larson claims inspired his son Walt and the Disney kingdom he'll create. He bought shares of O-Zell Company, a jelly-canneling plant that also produced apple juice in Chicago, where his son Walt Disney worked before he joined the Red Cross Ambulance Corps in World War I.

The neighborhood was called Hermosa and had been settled by Scottish, German, and Scandinavian immigrants. There were three children under the age of three in the United States. The family would move to Tripp Avenue on June 24, 1893, and Roy O. Disney would give birth to a baby boy the next day. Columbus wanted to name him Columbus, but Flora requested that Roy be named Roy instead, and Roy was chosen. There would be questions as to choosing a middle name. On Tripp Avenue, Flora saw a lumber truck painted with the name of Oliver Lumber Company painted over the sides of it. After seeing this truck, Elias and Flora would decide that Oliver would be Roy's middle name.

Disney had become a full-scale building contractor by the turn of the century. He designed houses that he owned and then resold. He also built the Saint Paul Congregational Church, a church dedicated on October 14, 1900. While Disney was one of the church's trustees, his wife was the church's treasurer.

Disney bought a newspaper distribution route for The Kansas City Star on July 1, 1911. Prospect Avenue to Indiana Avenue, and the Twenty-Seventh Street to the Thirty-first Street were all part of the transformation. The newspapers were delivered by Roy and Walt. The Disneys sold the morning newspaper Kansas City Times to 700 customers, as well as the evening and Sunday Star to more than 600. Their clients grew with time. To his newspaper subscribers, Disney also sold butter and eggs. They were imported from a Marceline dairy farm.
