The 1849 marriage between August Belmont I and Caroline Slidell Perry joined two historic American families. Belmont was an important financier, diplomat, political leader, patron of the arts, and founder of the Belmont Stakes, making him a defining figure of America’s Golden Age. Caroline Slidell Perry was the daughter of Commodore Matthew C. Perry, a member of the Perry naval dynasty and mastermind behind diplomatic relations and trade between Japan and western nations beginning in 1854. Ancestors of the Perry family arrived on the Mayflower and were prominent in the founding of Rhode Island.
