They heard from their father, Henry Hagle (1753-1834), that the Hagle family, after the reformation, had moved from Wurttemberg, a State in southern Germany, north to Hanover. When the agents of William Penn scoured Europe for Yeomen and tradesman to settle the State of Pennsylvania in the early 1700’s, one Henry Hagle, at the age of 14, came to America and lived for awhile in Philadelphia.

He had several children who where raised in New Jersey. During the American Revolution, a son, Jasper, while a prisoner-of-war at Valley Forge was poisoned by the rebels, so it was said.

After the war, a son, Henry, was with great fleet of exiles who sailed north from New York to what became the Province of New Brunswick.

Their next move, about 1792, with their four children, Catherine b1783, Hannah b1785, Jacob b1788 and Peter b1790, was to the Sugar Loaf Settlement, near Port Colborne.

Their final move was to Ancaster. Three more sons were born, Henry b1794, Luke b1796 and Samuel b1804.

He was jailed with Mark Hagle in London on 17 Dec 1837 for participating as a rebel in the Rebellion of 1837. He was granted bail a few weeks later, and the charges of treason were discharged on 13 Jan 1838.
