General Notes: Husband - Henry Engle

---

He was born in Metz, Alsace-Lorraine, Germany, and was one of the army that came to America under the French nobleman, General Lafayette, to fight for the Colonists in the war for independence. He survived that struggle without serious injury, but had imbibed so much of the American spirit of liberty and had become so ardent a champion of the cause he had aided to defend that when the foreign army, of which he was a part, embarked for Europe he and a companion deserted. Alone in a country with which they were almost unfamiliar, except for the part over which their campaign had carried them, they settled in the eastern part of Pennsylvania for a short time, and then, he and his comrade separating, he came to what is now Beaver County. For a time he conducted farming operations near Industry, and there died at the home of one of his several children.
