Biography

^[1] Wagners in PA - from the "Editor Enterprise" September 27, 1929.

"Referring to the Wagner family history now being published in your interesting paper, I am wondering whether any one knows whether the original John Peter Waggoner was related and how to the Lutheran Missionary Rev. Tobias Wagner from whom descended a Wagner family in Philadelphia whom I have known for many years. I recently asked Samuel Tobias Wagner, the head of one of the families here,w hat relation we were. He said he would like to know and sent me the following brief extract from this Wagner family history, giving the early essential points only.

"The earliest ancestor of the family of which we have any record was Tobias Wagner at Nordlingen, in Bavaria, whose son H. George Wagner was a councilman of the ancient town of Heidenheim, Wurtemburg. He married Mary Reuter of the city of Ulm, Wurtemburg, and their son Tobias Wagner, D. D. was born in Heidenheim, February 21, 1598. In 1662 he became Chancellor and Dean of the University of Tubingen and filled these offices until his death in 1680. He married Catherine, daughter of Dr. Melchoir Nicolai who was his predecessor as Chancellor and Dean. He wrote some 75 books, all in Latin.
