Edgar attended private schools in Pittsburgh and spent a year in the preparatory department of the Colorado Agricultural Collage. Following a year’s training as a cadet at Kenyon Military Academy at Gambier, he entered Park Institute of Allegheny, PA., for a two-year course. For three years Edgar was a student at Washington and Jefferson College in Washington, PA., and while there was a recognized athlete.

Leaving college he entered the firm of which his father was head, mastered the details of the business and became factory manager. In time, he was made vice president of the company and with the death of his father succeeded him to the office of president.

T. Clarence Heisey

T.C. Heisey was born November 4, 1882 in Idlewood, PA., the son of A. H. Heisey and Susan N. (Duncan) Heisey. He was the youngest of six children and the third son. His initial name was only Clarence Heisey and Thomas was added to his name sometime in the early 1900’s.

Clarence completed his high school education at the Mt. Pleasant Military Academy in Ossining, New York. In 1908 at the age of 25, he received a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from Amherst College in Amherst, MA.

Clarence began working in the family company in 1908 after his graduation. He was responsible for the filing of over 80 US design patents. His first patent was granted on May 1, 1912 for the #393 Narrow Flute pitcher and his last design patent was granted September 13, 1953 for a Bowl similar to the #1632 Lodestar design. He held 8 design patents for various items in the #411 Rib & Panel pattern granted in 1923, 8 for various items in #1503 Crystolite granted in 1939, 7 for various items in #1506 Whirlpool granted in 1939 and 12 for various items in #1506 Waverly granted from 1948 to 1950.

He was also responsible for the design of the first few Heisey animals in the late 1930’s and early 1940’s. Because of his interest in horses, he was responsible for the production of the horse related animals.

In 1942 Clarence became President, after Edgar Wilson Heisey passed away, and held that position until the plant closed late in 1957.
