From "HISTORY OF THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY," Vol. I, page 267. Brant & Fuller, 1890. WILLIAM C. DICKMAN William C. Dickman, a prominent retail grocer of South Wheeling, was born in Hanover, Germany, May 21, 1844, the son of Charles and Louisa Dickmann, with whom he came to America when less than a two years of age. The family settled at Wheeling, near where the mother still resides. The father died at that city June 4, 1858. Mr. Dickmann began at an early age to be identified with the grocery trade, beginning as a clerk at the age of fifteen. He is now doing an extensive business, and is a prosperous and popular citizen. He was married April 27, 1866, to Mary Bartley, a native of Ireland who came to America with her mother, brother and sister at an early age. They have four children: Charles J., Anna A., Mary J. and William. (Linda Fluharty)
