Those are the other two. They were part of an extended family of organ builders in Schmiedefeld in the second half of the eighteenth century, including a Johannes Wagner, the two sons of Johann Michael (i) [Johann Michael (ii) and Johann Friedrich], Johann Michael (iii), and Johann Gottlob [not the same one as in the question].Originally posted by antongould View Post
The Johann Gottlob Wagner in the question worked in Dresden.
