George W. ENGLE, wholesale dealer in flour, feed, grain, etc., Hazleton. This enterprising and successful young business man was born at Sybertsville, Pa., June 1, 1850, and is the eldest of four children of John and Rose (FRITZ) ENGLE, also natives of Pennsylvania. Mr. ENGLE was educated in the public schools of this county, and Bethlehem, also at the Tuscarors Academy and the Bloomsburg State Normal School. He prepared himself for the profession of civil engineer, and followed that vocation six years, during which time his business took him through the principal States in the Union, and also through many of the provinces of Canada. A the end of these six years he returned to Hazleton, where he purchased and has since successfully conducted the feed store then owned by J .A. SCHROCK, which business is now thoroughly established, and is in a thriving condition. Mr. ENGLE is so well known and respected in business, as well as social circles, that personal commendation is unnecessary. He was married in 1877 to Caroline E., daughter of James RHODES, a resident of Harvey's Lake, and four children were born to this union, viz.: Jessie (deceased), Edna, Stewart and James. Mr. ENGLE is an independent voter, and his family attend the Presbyterian Church.
