Israel Pemberton Jr. - (b. 1715 - d. 1779 in Philadelphia) was an English-American merchant and founding manager of the Pennsylvania Hospital. A grandson of a Quaker settler who migrated to the New World with William Penn in 1682, Pemberton profited from trade during King George's War. He ultimately was involved with funding Quaker schools and was a prominent proponent of Indian diplomacy, especially during the Seven Years' War. Notably, he funded Philadelphia's first fire company. In 1750, he was elected to the Pennsylvania Assembly. In the mid-1770s he tried to defend an Indian woman who had been brought to Pennsylvania as a slave from Virginia.
