Winand Wigger
Winand Michael Wigger (December 9, 1841 – January 5, 1901) was a German American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. He served as Bishop of Newark from 1881 until his death in 1901.
==Early life and education==
Winand Wigger was born in New York City to John Joseph and Elizabeth (née Strucke) Wigger, who immigrated to the United States from Westphalia in the late 1830s. The second of four children, he had three brothers: Joseph John, Robert and Theodore. He was a sickly child and the family returned to Germany in December 1843 in the hope that a sea voyage might better his health.〔 In August 1845, the family moved back to New York, where his father became prosperous and successful.〔
Wigger attended the parochial school of (St. Francis of Assisi Church ), and in September 1853 entered St. Francis Xavier's College, where he studied the classics and distinguished himself as an accomplished student and skilled musician.〔 He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in July 1860.〔 Deciding to follow a vocation to the priesthood, he then applied to St. Joseph's Seminary in Fordham but was rejected due to poor health.〔 Wigger was instead accepted at Seton Hall Seminary in the Diocese of Newark, New Jersey. In 1862, he went to further his studies at the seminary of Brignole-Sale in Genoa, Italy, where he was ordained a priest by Archbishop Andreas Charvaz on June 10, 1865. Before returning home, he spent several months in Rome and Westphalia.〔
