Joseph Stickney (1840–1903) was a wealthy coal broker in Pennsylvania. He was a native of Concord, New Hampshire, and made a fortune before the age of 30 investing in the coal business. He was born on May 31, 1840 in Concord, New Hampshire to Joseph Pearson Stickney (1796–1877) and Lucretia Gibson Stickney (1809–1840). In 1881 Stickney and his partner, John N. Conyngham, purchased the large Mount Pleasant Hotel, in the White Mountains region of New Hampshire, from lumberman John T.G. Leavitt. It was later demolished.[1] In 1894 he married [https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/45059309 Carolyn S. Foster] (1869–1936) of Waltham, Massachusetts. There were no children from the union.
