  • Eber Brock Ward (December 25, 1811 – January 2, 1875) was an American industrialist, iron and steel manufacturer, and shipbuilder. He was known as the "steamship king of the Great Lakes" and the "first of the iron kings." Ward became Detroit's first millionaire. His steel factories made him the wealthiest man in the Midwest, in his time. Ward invested in several industries in Michigan and the Midwest. He started as an owner of steamship interests, and later accumulated timberlands, as well as lands that contained iron ore, copper and silver. His investments would ultimately include newspapers, railroads, glass manufacturing, banking, and insurance companies. He was one of the promoters of the Soo Locks, and one of the first to use them (previously, his schooners had been hauled overland around the Soo Rapids to sail Lake Superior). (en)
