Richest Families Now In America

Over the centuries there have always been the "richest families" around the Nation. The Rockefellers, Kennedys, Carnegie's, etc., and now names like Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos, and Jobs, to name a few.

"The Waltons continued their reign as the richest family in America thanks to their stake in Walmart, the world's largest retailer by sales." 

So what about the 2 families that have made the Forbes list from New Jersey? What is their business that put them on the list? Where are they from in the Garden State? Have you ever had any dealings with these 2 families? Just some questions that come to mind.

The first family from New Jersey is famous for their soup! "The Dorrance family of Camden came in at No. 23 on Forbes' list with an estimated net worth of $17 billion. John T. Dorrance, who died in 1930, invented the formula for Campbell's famous condensed soup in 1869 and later took over the Campbell's Soup Company in 1914."
