Everton began life in 1878 simply as a Football Club connected initially to St Domingo's Methodist Church.  In the early years, the Captain of the Club was the senior figure.

In 1879, the club adopted the name Everton and soon appointed a President of the Club.

Although an increasing number of players became professionals in the mid-1880s, years before the start of the professional Football League, Everton Football Club did not become a  business entity There was a proposal made in May 1889 to form a Limited Liability Company for the purpose of acquiring the Everton Football Ground but this was defeated. When Everton eventually split from John Houlding and moved to Goodison Road in 1892, it was resolved to form the Everton Football Club Limited with a capital of £500 in £1 shares.  At this point a Board of Directors was appointed, with George Mahon as Chairman.
