Waggoner (Wagner, Wagener, Wagoner)
Waggoner is a German/English occupational name. One who drove the high-sided carts or wagons carrying produce between manors was called the Waggoner in England, and the German counterpart is Wagner. Among the Pennsylvania Germans who were some of the first non-English settlers of the American colony, Wagner also denoted a wagon-maker.
