Since I started this site back in 2008, Gloria Vanderbilt has been the top search result that leads people here. Since I research the genealogy and history of the Vanderbilt family, I have certainly learned much about Gloria and her family during the years. Gloria passed away today at 95 years old. Born February 20, 1924, to Reginald Claypoole Vanderbilt and Gloria Morgan, her great-grandfather, William Henry Vanderbilt, was the oldest son of the Commodore.
