Biography
Charles Pierre Melly (born Tuebrook, Liverpool, England; 25 May 1829 – 1888) was a philanthropist mostly known today for his drinking fountains, which he created to make drinking water available to the public. Most of these drinking fountains are to be found in Liverpool, but some can be found as far afield as Southampton. He was also involved in his family's cotton-trading business.
Personal life
In 1854, Melly married his cousin, Louise Forget, (1825–1899) in Geneva.
They made their home at Riversley, his parents' house in Mossley Hill, Liverpool, and had seven sons and a daughter.
