Biography:
JAMES H. McGILLAN.
One of the strong law firms of Green Bay is that of which James H. McGillan is junior member. He came to this city in October, 1899. and entered into his present relation as a member of the firm of Green, Fair- child, North, Parker & McGillan on the 15th of March, 1912. He has been a lifelong resident of Wisconsin, his birth having occurred at Ap- pleton, January 7, 1870. His parents were James H. and Johanna Mc- Gillan, the former coming from Ohio to Wisconsin, where he engaged in the business of lumbering. The family is of Scotch-Irish origin and was founded in America in 1790. Several representatives of the name served in the Civil war. James H. McGillan, Sr., died in November, 1907, at the age of seventy-one years, while his wife passed away in March. 1908, at the age of sixty-four. They lie buried in Riverside cemetery at Apple- ton, Wisconsin.
James H. McGillan, whose name introduces this review, acquired his primary education in the public schools of his native city and was gradu- ated from the high school with the class of 1887. He then spent two years as a student in Lawrence University at Appleton and in 1889 en- tered the law department of the University of Wisconsin, from which he was graduated in 1891, receiving the LL. B. degree. He had applied him- self with thoroughness to the mastery of legal principles and, well equipped for his professional career, he opened an office in Marinette, Wisconsin, and began practice. He met with quite satisfactory success there un- til October, 1899, when he came to Green Bay and entered the firm of Minahan and Fontaine at No. 207 North Washington street. This part- nership was dissolved in 1905, after which Mr. McGillan remained alone in practice until the 15th of March, 1912, when he joined the firm of Green, Fairchild, North & Parker. His name was then added to the firm style and he is now associated with one of the strongest law combina- tions of the city. Their clientage is very extensive, connecting them with the most important litigation heard in the courts of the district. No one better realizes the necessity of careful preparation and no one more thor- oughly prepares for the presentation of his cause before the courts in Green Bay than does Mr. McGillan. He does not seek to enshroud his cause in any sentimental garb or illusion but presents his facts in the strong, clear light of common sense and sound reasoning.
On the 25th of April, 1901, in Marinette, Wisconsin, Mr. McGillan was united in marriage to Miss Gertrude Sommerville, a daughter of Dr. (ames A. Sommerville, who for many years has been a practitioner at Marinette. Mr. and Airs. McGillan now reside at No. 509 South Quincy street.
Fraternally Mr. McGillan is connected with the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks and the Knights of Pythias. His college fraternity was the Delta Tau Delta, and he still wears the fraternity pin and is interested in its affairs. He is a member of the American Bar Association and is interested in all efforts to raise the standards of practice and promote the ends of justice. He is the owner of a magnificent sixty-five foot yacht - the Killarney - and is an enthusiastic sailor and fisherman, being now commodore of the Green Bay Yacht Club.
