Thanks to R. Fahey for providing the biographical information:

From the 1914 book History of Franklin County Iowa:

Phillip F. Sailer is one of the prosperous farmers and business men of Franklin county. He owns one hundred and twenty acres of valuable land on section 3, Osceola township, whereon he successfully engages in general farming and stock-raising. He was born in Germany, May 4, 1864, and is a son of John Jacob and Louise (Off) Sailer, natives of Germany. The parents came to America in 1885 and settled immediately in Franklin county, where the father died September 14, 1913, and the mother December 29, 1910. In their family were eleven children, of whom the following survive: John Jacob, of Grant township; Carolina, the wife of Thomas Sesler, of Osceola township; Charles, a resident of Germany; Fred, of Osceola township; Louisa, the widow of G. Hofmeister; John, a resident of Osceola township; Paulina, the wife of Christ Sailer, of Osceola township; and Phillip F., of this review.

Phillip F. Sailer came to America with his parents in 1885. He was reared at home and during his entire active life has been engaged in farming. In 1894 he and his brother purchased a homestead of three hundred and twenty acres which they divided, Phillip F. Sailer receiving one hundred and twenty acres. This land is located on section 3, Osceola township and under Mr. Sailer's able management has become a productive and valuable property equipped with substantial buildings and modern machinery.

On the 27th of April, 1896, Mr. Sailer was united in marriage to Miss Louisa Beecker and they became the parents of five children: August Frederick, Wilhelm Hermann, Clara Luise and Anna Wilhelmine, at home; and Emma, who has passed away. Mr. Sailer is a member of the Lutheran church and gives his political allegiance to the republican party. He is a man who, through enterprise and honesty, has acquired an excellent reputation in his community.
