Framed Print of William A. Wheeler, 19th Vice President
William Almon Wheeler (June 30, 1819 - June 4, 1887) was an American politician and attorney. After serving in various local positions, he won election to the NY State Legislature. He served in Congress from 1861-63 and from 1869-77. He was widely respected for his integrity, and refused his salary increase after Congress passed an 1873 pay raise that he opposed. After the 1876 Republican National Convention settled on Rutherford B. Hayes as the party's presidential nominee after seven ballots, the delegates nominated Wheeler for vice president. He was nominated because he was popular among his colleagues, having worked to avoid making enemies in Congress. In addition, as a resident of the populous Eastern state of New York, he provided geographical balance to the ticket, since Hayes was from the populous Midwest state of Ohio. The Republican ticket prevailed in the contentious 1876 presidential election, though they lost the popular vote. Though they had not known each other before the convention, Wheeler and Hayes got along amicably while in office. They chose not to seek second terms. Wheeler died in 1887 at the age of 67. © New York Public Library / Science Source
