  Jamsetjee Jeejebhoy - Wikipedia
Sir Jamsetjee Jeejebhoy, Baronet (also seen as Qamsetji, and Jeejeebhoy, Jejeebjoy, Qijibhai) (1783-1859) was an Indian merchant and philanthropist.
An essentially self-made man, having experienced in early life the miseries of poverty and want, in his days of affluence Jamsetjee Jeejebhoy developed an active instinct of sympathy with his poorer countrymen, and commenced that career of private and public philanthropy which is his chief title to the admiration of mankind.
Jamsetjee Jeejebhoy's unsectarian philanthropy awakened a common understanding and created a bond between them which has proved not only of domestic value but has had a national and political significance.

 Sir J.J.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Jamsetjee, the youngest son of cloth weaver Jeejeebhoy and his wife, Jeevibai, was born in the `Yatha Ahu Vairyo Mohalla' near the Crawford Market in Bombay on July 15, 1783.
All along, Jamsetjee's partner was his uncle with whom he began his humble career as an bottle-seller, Framjee Batlivala, whose daughter, Avabai, became Jamsetjee's wife when he was 20, and she ten.
After the death of his uncle (and father-in-law), Jamsetjee took Motichand Amichand (a Hindu) and Mohomedali Rogay (a Konkani Muslim) as his partners in the firm Jamsetjee Jeejeebhoy and Co., and their efforts were enormously successful.
