  RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. FHL 929.273 book "A Wampler Family History," by Roy H. Wampler, 1999, pp. 30-31: A. "Philiptenia ('Phoebe' or 'Phebe') Wampler, b. ca. 1751-1752, PA; d. 17 Apr 1815; bur. at Wolfe Cemetery, Union Bridge, MD., md. Jacob Engler, b. Nov. 1752; d. 18 Feb 1816, bur. at same cemetery. Phebe Engler's gravestone gives her age as 64 yr., 3 mo., 5 d., implying that her date of birth was 12 Jan 1751, but this may conflict with her sister Anna Elizabetha's birth date which was probably a month or so before her baptism on 28 Oct 1750. The gravestone of Phebe's husband, Jacob Engler (1752-1816), is one which matches hers in design. Also buried at Wolfe Cemetery is a younger Jacob Englar (1764-1809) who was son of Philip Englar (1736-1817) and thus a brother of the Catherine Englar who married David Wampler, Phebe's younger brother. In the 1790 and 1800 censuses, Jacob Engler is listed as a head of family in Frederick Co., MD. Some previously published accounts [references Fred B. Wampler's "Wampler Family History 1701-1980" and Genevieve M. Shouse's "Wamplers of America"] of the Wampler family state that the name of Philiptenia Wampler's husband was Philip Engler (or Ingler), but I have found nothing in the original records to substantiate this claim. The Chancery Court records gives her husband's name as Jacob Engler. One witness to her father's will, however was named Philip Engler." B. Issue (noted as possibly incomplete): i. Jacob Engler. ii.
