Daniel, Jasper Newton "Jack" Daniel (c.
January 1849 – October 9, 1911) was an American distiller and businessman best known as the founder of the Jack Daniel's Tennessee whiskey distillery.
Early life
Daniel was the youngest of ten children born to Calaway and Lucinda Matilda (née Cook) Daniel. He was of Scotish, Scottish, and Welsh descent; his grandfather, Joseph "Job" Daniel, was born in Wales, but his grandmother, Elizabeth Calaway, was born in Scotland. In the late 18th century, his paternal grandparents immigrated to the United States.
Daniel's date of birth is unknown. He was born in January 1849, in or near Lynchburg, Tennessee, according to one source. A town fire destroyed the courthouse records, and because his mother died shortly after his birth, it was most likely due to birth complications, inconsistent dates on him and his mother's tombstones, Daniel's date of birth has been put into question. His father remarried and had three more children with Matilda Vanzant on June 26, 1851.
Daniel was born in the Primitive Baptist Church. Jack Daniel's first license was issued in 1866 by the company that now owns the distillery. However, author Peter Krass' book Blood & Whiskey: The Life and Times of Jack Daniel, the distillery's founder, claims that it wasn't established until 1875.
Daniel Call, a grocer, and distiller, worked for a preacher, grocer, and distiller, according to company records, around 1850s, when Daniel was a boy. The preacher, as the tales revealed, was a whistleblower, and he showed him how to pour his whisky even as he was promised in young Jack. However, the company's view that Daniel did not learn distillation from Call was dismissed by a man named Nearest Green (misspelled as "Nearis" in the 1880 census) — one of Call's slaves, according to The New York Times on June 25, 2016.
Personal life
Daniel never married and did not have children. However, he took his nephews under his wing, one of whom was Lemuel "Lem" Motlow. Motlow, the uncle of Jack's niece Finetta, was an accountant who was familiar with numbers and was soon handling all of the distillery's bookkeeping.
