• frequency: Daily (ex. Sun)
• lineage_id: 108
• proprietors: David Hull
• start_date: Before May 8, 1844
• variant_number: Wheeling 02-10
• notes: Earliest surviving number with Hull's imprimatur is that issued May 8, 1844, indicating that McCreary sold him this paper sometime in preceding year; as that issue is no. 6 of ninth volume/year, Hull may have acquired paper in the week before that number appeared; he could also have bought paper as early as May 1843, as McCreary removed to Cincinnati to manage the Daily Gazette there, which was founded then. Gazette was absorbed by the Wheeling Times and Advertiser in mid-December 1844, creating the Wheeling Times and Gazette, edited by James E. Wharton until 1855.
