Rockefeller and partners formed the Standard Oil Company of Ohio in 1870, after having entered the oil business in 1863 with the founding of Andrews, Clark & Company and later Rockefeller, Andrews & Flagler in 1867. ... In 1882, after determining the feasibility of setting up a joint-stock corporation, Rockefeller and partners formed the Standard Oil Trust to unify what then numbered about 40 companies. ... That same year, the Trust formed Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and Standard Oil Company of New York, which soon became two of the Trust's larger concerns. ...

found: Cataloger's note: The name "Standard Oil Company," as used for the time period 1870 to 1899, refers to Standard Oil Company (Ohio), as founded in 1870 by Rockefeller and partners. For the period 1899 to 1911, it also denotes the enterprise "Standard Oil Company of New Jersey," founded in 1884 by the then newly formed Standard Oil Trust, with Standard Oil Company (Ohio) continuing to exist as a member of the combination. Fifteen years later in 1899, Standard Oil Company of New Jersey was named by those in control as the holding company for the combination's corporate members. This explains the citation of the case as decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1911, "Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey v. United States, 221 U.S. 1 (1911)."
