Biography
John Sigler was born about 1769 in Virginia.[1]
Was mentioned in his fathers Will. Will was written 1 Apr 1817.[2]
John married Nancy Agnus Wials on 8 July 1791 in Surry County, North Carolina. Lawrence Sigler (perhaps his brother) was the bondsman. [3] They had nine children. Their four sons were Philip, Amos Mansfield, Jacob, and John. Their five daughters were Elizabeth, Hanna, Nancy, Jane, and Margret. They moved to Robertson County, Tennessee, sometime between 1795 and 1800. John is buried in Robertson County, Tennessee, a county on the Kentucky-Tennessee state line. At least three of the children moved to Missouri and are buried in Jasper County, Vernon County, and Texas County. At least five of the children moved to Kentucky and are buried in the counties of Caldwell, Crittenden, Union, and Webster.
Research Note
John, (often , in the conflations, listed as "John Jacob" perhaps in an attempt to fit him into the conflation,) and his son, Jacob Sigler (1797-1872) are often conflated withJacob Sigler (abt.1768-abt.1808) and Jacob Sigler (1794-abt.1867) of New Jersey. It is believed the two families may be connected, but what that connection is has not yet been determined.
