Albert Keep
Albert Keep (1826 – May 13, 1907) was a 19th-century American railroad official and financier. He was a former president and director of the Chicago and North Western Railway. For eighteen years he was director of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway. He was born in Homer, New York, in Cortland County.
Keep moved to Whitewater, Wisconsin, in 1846. He became a leading merchant there, working along with his brother, Henry, and Philander Peck.
