Stephen Decatur Engle was born in Sugarloaf Township, near Sybertsville, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, December 18, 1837. His ancestors came from Holland d n 1683, and settled at Germantown, near Philadelphia. He was raised on a farm, but his father was also a watch tinkerer, as were two of Stephen's brothers. Engle grew up with a fascination and knack for metal crafting and carpentry, which he employed to earn extra spending money. When he was twelve, he could turn wagon hubs, mortise them, and finish a hand wagon complete from the crude material.
