- BIOGRAPHY:
1. Book, "Wampler Family History 1500s - 1700s," by Fred B. Wampler, Ph.D., p. 64 and 92, summarizes his findings of vital information regarding this individual as follows: Johann Michael (Hans Michael), b. 1702-3, d. Dec. 29, 1760 in Sparsbach, Md. Anna Barbara (last name unknown), d. Apr 1758 (62 years 10 months, 15 days) in Sparsbach. All of the sons of Christian Senior were linen weavers by trade. Hans Michel (1702-1703) was a witness for the christening of Hans Michel Wampfler (1724) who came to America with his father Hans Peter in 1741. It is obvious that Hans Michel (1724) was named after his father's brother. Today there are still Wampflers in the small village of Sparsbach and it is very probable they are the direct descendants of Johann Michel (Hans Michel) and Anna Barbara Wampfler. The author notes he did not do a complete search for all of the children of this individual; however, a partial listing includes:
a. Johann Michel, b. Jan 1736, d. 4 May 1776 in Sparsbach at age 40y3m10d. He was an innkeeper who md. Anna Margaretha Stutzmann and who had a child named Margaretha Barbara ch. 23 Mar 1765 in Sparsbach.
b. Johann Jacob, b. May 1729, d. 12 Jan 1776 in Sparsbach at age 46y8m.
