The son of Jacob & Anna Hogentogler, in 1850 he lived in Columbia, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Although absent from the 1860 census, it is likely that he was still living in the area where he worked as a brick maker. He stood 5' 10" tall and had black hair and dark eyes.
A Civil War veteran, he enlisted in Columbia August 4, 1862, mustered into federal service at Lancaster August 12 as a private with Co. K, 135th Pennsylvania Infantry, and promoted to corporal January 16, 1863. He contracted typhoid fever and was hospitalized in Washington DC but honorably discharged with his company May 24, 1863. At muster-out, the army docked his final pay for lost knapsack, canteen, and haversack as well as an additional $2.99 to cover "difference in cost of clothing," an odd financial hit levied on most of the men in the regiment. He also enlisted in Philadelphia June 26, 1864, mustered into federal service there June 29 as a private with Co. F, 186th Pennsylvania Infantry, and honorably discharged with his company August 15, 1865.
He married Ellen unk. and fathered Carrie (b. @1873). In 1890, he lived in the Norwood District of Lancaster County.
