With the arrival of the businessman civil war, Frank Rockefeller will join the alliance army at the age of 16 and become a private army of the 7th Ohio infantry regiment. He was injured twice during the war and the second wound actually sent him home until the end of the war. John D. Rockefeller's younger brother, Frank soon began to dislike his brother for his great wealth. In 1870, he and his father-in-law, Williams Cofield, established Pioneer Oil, a competitor of John Standard Oil. The Pioneer Oil Company was soon acquired by the Standard Oil Company.

John D. Rockefeller's brother hated John D. Rockefeller 's brother. His name was Franklin (he only went to Frank) and he was called another brother of Rockefeller. When John D. Rockefeller formed the standard oil empire, his brother was looking forward to the new Western empire called Kansas trying to create his own wealth. He became a shareholder and his ambition fell into his own dream: Frank Rockefeller wanted to be a rancher. Rockefeller family was complicated from the beginning - Father Bill Rockefeller at best was a con artist. But the relationship of Rockefeller brothers is equally turbulent. Frank is always wild (John D. is always watchfully calculating) as detailed in the biographical Titan of the huge Rockefeller. Frank's enthusiasm has never been compared with the cruel ability of John D. Frank was the only family to apply for the Civil War when he was 16 years old.

In 1870, a group of colleagues including Rockefeller and American investor Henry M. Flagler established Standard Oil Corporation (Ohio). By 1872, Rockefeller dominated almost all Cleveland refineries, emphasizing economic activity, its competitors flourished and began to acquire competitors. This fact enables the company to negotiate with the railroad company on preferential interest rates for its oil transport. It acquired pipeline and terminal facilities, purchased competing oil refineries in other cities, and actively tried to expand its market in the US and overseas. In 1881, Rockefeller and his colleagues were managed by nine trustees, placed the shares of the Ohio standard and its affiliates under the control of other states, and Rockefeller chief executive officer I served. As a result, they established the first major "trust" in the United States and established an organizational model for other monopolies. By 1882, Standard Oil almost monopolized the US oil business.
