No, j.c.higgins was made by several gunmakers for sears between 1946 and 1962 for retail. Ted Williams just used his name as a marketing tool for a certain model and number of guns. J Higgins was an employee of Sears that worked his way to the top from the bottom. It's a pretty neat story. When he died they changed to the Ted Williams line. http://www.searsarchives.com/brands/jchiggins.htm
