History: Yale University in New Haven, CT, takes its name from an early benefactor, Elihu Yale (1649–1721), an officer of the British East India Company who rose to become governor of Madras Presidency, before being dismissed for corruption. He was born in Boston and his family came from Plas-Gronow near Wrexham, Denbighshire; his father, David Yale, had settled in NH in 1637.
