Frederick Wise was the first of the family to locate in Cumberland county, and is the first of whom there is any definite knowledge. His parents were of German birth, but it is not known whether they came to America or not. He located at South Middleton, Cumberland county, Pa., and became the owner of considerable real estate, upon which he lived and reared his family, becoming one of the good, sturdy citizens of his day. He was recognized and admired for his sterling qualities, and his close adherence to law and order. The rules which governed his life were made to apply to his children, and they grew up honorable men and women. He lived to an advanced age, and was a staunch believer in the principles of true Democracy, casting his vote for the candidates of the Democratic party. In religious matters he was a consistent member of the Lutheran Church. He was united in marriage with a widow, Mrs. Salander, who had two sons, Daniel and John Salander. She bore her second husband the following children: Eliza, who died unmarried; Catherine, who married William Morrison, of Cumberland county; Jacob, the father of Jacob E.; Frederick, who was a farmer of Cumberland county; Ann, who became the wife of David Zeigeler, of Cumberland county; Susan, who died unmarried; Henry, who was a farmer of Cumberland county; and Margaret, who married Frederick Ryder, of Cumberland county.
