Generation: 4

  1. 10.  John P NAYLER was born in 1842 in Germany (son of Georg Leonard NOGLER and Anna Barbara ZAPF); died in 1920 in Shelbina, Shelby, Missouri, USA.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Reference Number: 1702

    Notes:

    NOTE: Source documents on John P Nayler are confusing. The findagrave site has the most information about him, his wife Elizabeth, and 4 children.
    The 1880 census lists Nancy, his child from his first wife, and other children, the oldest of whom is 7. This likely means that he remarried shortly after the death of Nancy.

    Birth:
    The 1860 census for this family has a child named "Mary" born in 1842. John P is not listed on this census.
