Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1905, p. 153-154:
Lewis Wigle, mayor of Leamington, County of Essex, was born at Kingsville, Ont., March 10, 1845, a son of Solomon and Ann (Iler) Wigle.
     Solomon Wigle, ex-member of the Provincial Parliament, was born in Gosfield South, County of Essex, Ont., May 14, 1822... He and his wife had a family of seven children, of whom five are now surviving: Lewis...
     Lewis Wigle ... embarked in a mercantile business, and continued to be identified with the establishment until his retirement, in 1891. During the years of his residence at Leamington he acquired some valuable realty near the city, on which he carried on farming for a number of years, and in addition to attending to his other interests he bought tobacco extensively for the Empire Tobacco Company, being one of the best known tobacco buyers of this section. Mr. Wigle was instrumental in having constructed the Leamington & St. Clair railroad, and was president of the company until that road was absorbed by the Michigan Central. He built and is the owner of the handsome Wigle block, one of the best business blocks in the town of Leamington...
     In Nov., 1867, Mr. Wigle was married to Miss Rebecca, daughter of Thomas Hairsine, of Mersea township, and five children were born to this union: Everett, of Leamington, married Maggie McLean; Edith is the wife of S. L. McKay, mayor of Kingsville, and has one daughter, Marjorie; Russell, of Leamington, married Gertrude Awkworth, and has one son, Lewis W.; Mabel and Ella are at home. Mrs. Wigle died in February 1898, and Mr. Wigle later married Mrs. Bertha (Smith) Wray, widow of Dr. Wray, and daughter of Thaddeus Smith, of Pelee Island, although Mrs. Wigle was born in Kentucky. She was sent to her native state to be educated, and was graduated from the Lexington (Kentucky) Female Institute. Mrs. Wigle is an active worker in the Church of England, and Mr. Wigle attends its services and contributes liberally toward its support. Both Mr. and Mrs. Wigle are among the leading people of Leamington, and Mr. Wigle is recognized as one of its most distinguished citizens.
