The office of Speaker of the House has been occupied by wealthy and powerful men. For reference, I have compiled a list of those men along with the Session of Congress they served in and the State they represented.

Over the next few weeks, I will begin to build biography nodes for each Speaker of the House. Any assistance would be appriciated. As has been requested, I will be adding dates of service to each member as I updated their biographies.
