History of Braxton County and Central West Virginia

Sutton, West Virginia, January, 1919

Page 410

Dr. W. H. McCauley, physician and surgeon, was born in Upshur
county, West Virginia, September 2nd, 1859. He belonged to a family
of eight children, reared on a farm, and without any extensive
means to secure an education, outside of his own close application,
energy and frugal habits. He attended the neighboring schools of
the county, and after going through the common branches, he began
to teach, as an aid to a higher education. Belonging to that
McCauley family that was noted for their medical talent, he bent
his energies in that direction, and took up the study of medicine
in Sutton, and taking a course at the College of Physicians &
Surgeons at Baltimore, where he was graduated in 1888. Since that
time he has maintained his office in Sutton, except for a period of
four years, in which time he was Assistant Surgeon in the Hospital
for the Insane, at Weston. He was married in 1891, to Miss Mary E.
Norris. This union has been blessed with two daughters, of culture
and refinement, the pride and joy of their parents.
