James "Wild Jimmy" Haggerty (d. January 25, 1871) was an American criminal and well-known underworld figure in Philadelphia and later in New York during the mid-to late 19th century. Haggerty was the leader of the Schuylkill Rangers, a predominantly Irish-American street gang, which terrorized the South Philadelphia waterfront, specifically its local wharves and coal yards, for over 25 years.〔Dubin, Murray. ''South Philadelphia: Mummers, Memories, and the Melrose Diner''. Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 1996. (pg. 161) ISBN 1-56639-429-5〕 Haggerty ruled over the Schuylkill Rangers throughout the 1850s and was the gang's last leader until its breakup by an undercover police lieutenant.〔Clark, Dennis.

(pg. 115) ISBN 0-87722-227-4〕 He remained one of the city's most notorious bank robbers during the post-Civil War era and later resided in New York where he spent his last years before being murdered by Reddy the Blacksmith during a bar brawl in January 1871.〔Moss, Frank.
