John Vogler (1783-1881) learned the craft of silversmithing from his uncle, Christoph Vogler (1765-1827), and other Moravian silversmiths. A talented and versatile metalsmith and businessman, Vogler's business was located in Old Salem where he crafted a variety of objects including watches and clocks, spoons, ladles, as well as various surveyors' tools and implements he supplied to the Moravian congregation.
