John J. Cisco (April 26, 1806 - March 23, 1884), was a merchant in the dry goods business in New York City, who retired at the age of thirty-six with a fortune. Some eleven years later, in 1853 President Franklin Pierce appointed Cisco to the office of Assistant Treasurer of the United States, and placed in charge of the Sub-Treasury in New York. He was later also appointed to this office by President James Buchanan. After serving under two Democratic Presidents, Cisco expected to be replaced by the incoming Republican administration of President Lincoln, but was kept on. He served under Lincoln until the Spring of 1864, when Cisco resigned the post due to poor health. He had a City named after him ( Cisco, TX ) due to his enormous help in the construction of Dallas and Houston.
