The heirs to one of America's oldest corporations, chemical company DuPont, are estimated to number least 3,500.
DuPont was founded as a gunpowder manufacturer in 1802 by E.I. du Pont, who fled France for the U.S. during the French Revolution.
The company expanded far beyond gunpowder, and is credited with inventing rayon, nylon and kevlar.
In 2017, DuPont merged with competitor Dow Chemical, then split into three companies -- DuPont, Dow and Corteva -- in 2019. The companies combined for $87 billion of fiscal 2022 sales.
Eleuthere I. du Pont sits on DuPont's board of directors and runs the family's charitable Longwood Foundation.
