William Wise Born 1840- Germany died 1921 Alabama

Surnames: Wise
I'm trying to find any information on William Wise born October 14, 1840 in Germany. I found Immigration date on the 1900 census for 1850.
He married Elizabeth in 1865. The census says Elizabeth has 6 children and 5 were living in 1900. Elizabeth was born in Germany also.
The only child I know is William F. Wise born in Indiana.
William SR died on 4-18-1921 in Alabama.
His wife Elizabeth died Jan.3, 1908 in Cullman, Alabama.

I can't seem to find any information on William Sr prior to 1900.
I don't know where in Indiana William and Elizabeth lived and I can't find any more of their children.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
