BIOGRAPHY OF W. H. HIGGINS
From "History of Wheeling City and Ohio County, West Virginia and Representative
Citizens," by Hon. Gibson Lamb Cranmer, 1902; pp. 468, 471
W. H. HIGGINS, assistant secretary and treasurer of the Wheeling Steel & Iron Company, has filled that
office for the past three or four years. He was originally employed at the Benwood Iron Works, which
were afterward consolidated with the Wheeling Steel & Iron Company. He began to work as a clerk in
the Benwood Iron Works in 1881.
Mr. Higgins was born at Wheeling, West Virginia, and is a son of T. H. and Mary (Holliday) Higgins, and
grandson of Bernard and Ann Jane (Rankin) Higgins.
Bernard Higgins was a native of Ohio county, where he was born in May, 1809. He was engaged in many
different lines of business during his life of seventy-two years. He was united in marriage with
Ann Jane Rankin at Wheeling. She was a native of Ireland, and died at the home of her daughter in Richmond,
Virginia, in 1890, aged seventy-nine years.
T. H. Higgins was born in Ohio county in 1838, and was reared and schooled in Wheeling. When but a
boy he became interested in photographing, and engaged in 1856, with A. C.
Partridge, with whom he remained four years, and then commenced business for himself.
He was engaged in this business until 1898, when he retired, and since the spring of 1900 has occupied a
position as bookkeeper in the office of White & White, brokers. He was joined in marriage with
Mary Holliday,
a daughter of W. R. and Lydia (Wilson) Holliday. Mrs. Lydia
Holliday, a descendant of James Wilson, who signed the Declaration of Independence, was very
prominent during the Civil War, and belonged to one of the earliest families of Wheeling, having come to this
city in 1830 or 1832. She lived to the very advanced age of ninety-seven years and was familiarly known
during life as "Mother" Holliday. W. H. Higgins' mother was born at Wheeling, and she and her husband
resided, until 1893, in the fifth ward, but at present live on the Island. To their union were born three
children, - W. H., Mrs. A. L. White and Bessie M.
In political opinions, Mr. Higgins has always been a Republican. Fraternally, he is a member of Virginius
Lodge, No. 2, I. O. O. F., having joined that lodge over twenty-five years ago; he has passed through all
the chairs, and has been treasurer since 1876. He and his family attend services at the Christian church. Mr. Higgins was reared in Wheeling, and obtained
his early mental instruction in the common schools of the city. He married Emma V. Johnson, a daughter of W.
D. Johnson, a tinware dealer in Wheeling. He and his wife have been blessed with two children, - William
(Higgins)
and Virginia. The family reside at No. 135 South Penn street, on the Island. In political opinions, Mr.
Higgins is Republican, and has served as a member of the city council from the seventh ward. Fraternally,
he is a member of Wheeling Lodge, No. 23, A. O. U. W., of which he is a past master, and of Wheeling Lodge,
No. 6474, Modern Woodmen of America. He is also a member of the grand lodge of the Ancient Order of
United Workmen, of West Virginia, filling the office of grand receiver, which he has occupied since April,
1898. Mr. Higgins is an honest and dutiful citizen, and is highly esteemed by his employers and his
friends.
