Arthur C. Engler, the youngest son of the late Charles Engler, one of the early pioneers in Topeka Township, was born on the old homestead here, May 31, 1884. In early youth he attended the Sunnyside District School but anxiously looked forward to the time when he would be permitted to assist his father and become personally interested in the different agricultural activities. Inheriting his father's love of stock, he has been equally successful along this line. His present highly improved farm of 285 acres is a part of the old homestead and here he has always lived. Utilizing the best machinery and following the most approved methods, Mr. Engler has made his farm one of the best in Shawnee County and enjoys the reputation of being one of the best informed, practical and most thrifty agriculturists.
On September 12, 1905, Mr. Engler was married to Miss Minnie C. Brown, who is a daughter of Robert H. Brown, one of the prominent men of Shawnee County. They have two children: Doris Thelma and Paul Charles Henning Engler. Mr. Engler attends closely to his large agricultural interests and has never been particularly active in politics although ever ready to lend his influence in the direction of temperance and morality, and impresses a stranger as being one of the county's capable men and useful citizens.
