On my side of family tree researching, I have George W. Wampler's birth info as 24 Novermber 1838 in Indiana. I haven't pegged down what town and/or county.

For the death information I have George passing away 8 January 1915, most likely in Putnam county in Indiana. He is buried in Bainbridge, Putnam, Indiana in the Bainbridge Cemetery.

To fill in the middle, George W. Wampler married Mary Elizabeth Wilson on 8 November 1868 in Putnam county, Indiana. Mary was the daughter of Abraham P. (1821-1859) and Mary E. (1823-1915) Wilson. Mary Elizabeth Wilson was born 20 November 1843 in Lawrence county, Indiana. I have her listed as to passing 31 August 1881 and buried in Bainbridge, Putnam Indiana.

George W. Wampler is said to have served in the Civil War, but to date, I have not located information about dates or other details.

George is listed in his father's household for the 1850 US Census for Gosport, Owen, Indiana. In the 1880 US Census, for Bainbridge, Putnam, Indiana, Jeremiah P. Wampler is recorded with George's household. I have not located George's censuses for 1860 and 1870.

I have George W. and Mary E. (Wilson) Wampler having 5 children: Martin Tilman Wampler, Dora A. Wampler, Mary Emeline Wampler, Otto Wampler, and Grace Wampler. Grace Wampler passed away around the age of 13 and is buried in Bainbridge, Putnam, Indiana.
