The b/w version of a portrait of Nathaniel Prime by Oliver Ingraham Lay, 1879 (copy after John Trumbull)

Nathaniel I. Prime (30 January 1768 – 26 November 1840) born Rowley, Massachusetts was a New York broker and banker. He purchased the Nathaniel Prime Mansion in Hell Gate, New York near Yorkville, New York in 1807. The building stood on the block between First Avenue and York Avenue and 89th and 90th streets.[1] John Frazee did a sculpture of Prime. He is buried at the cemetery of Saint Paul's Church National Historic Site in Mount Vernon, Westchester County, New York.[2]
