Hi
I'm looking for info on my ZIMMERMAN line. This is actually my ex-husbands
line but am finishing the research I started when we were together for our
children :-)
This is the info I have so far....
Info as it appears on the1920 Census Pontiac Twp., Oakland Co., MI
Nebel C.( I know this to be Clare) ZIMMERMAN resided in dwelling # 96, family
# 100, listed as head of household, white male, 40 y/o, married immigrated in
1893, Naturalized in 1902, attended school and could both read and write.
Place of birth was Canada, mother tongue was english, father born in
Canada,father's mother tongue was english, Mother born in Canada, her mother
tongue was english also. Nevel ( I know this is the correct spelling not
Nebel as this is my ex-father in laws name also) could speak english, was a
carpenter by trade, worked from his house and worked for wage.
Other members of the family listed with him are:
Mary L. ( HURD), wife, female, 29,married born in MI as were both her parents.
Donald E., son, male white 1 9/m single born in MI
Nebel ( again this is Nevel...this is the great grand father of my children),
son, male, white, 3/12, born in MI
Now listed directly below this family is the following family...I believe
this is parents and siblings of Nebel (Nevel) C. listed above because of the
fact that my ex-husband has the same name as the father of this family and
they tended to stay close in the naming practice.
Dwelling # 97, family # 101.Earl ZIMMERMAN head of household, rented, male,
white, 30, single, immigrated in 1893, naturalized in 1902, attended school
and could read and write english, born in Canada, mother tongue english,
father born in Canada, mother tongue english, mother born in Canada, mother
tongue english, Earl could speak english, was a farmer, general farm, worked
on own account, number of ? schedule was 56.
Also listed with Earl are:
*Thomas W. father, male, white 66 married, born Canada both parents born
Canada, was a partner in the farm with Earl.
*Rachel, mother, white,52,married born Canada, both parents born Canada.
*Violet, sister, female, white, 15, single, born in MI.
* Gertrude, sister, female, white, 11, single, born in MI
If I haven't confused anyone too badly and u have a connection or maybe know
of someone who might, to this family...I appreciate hearing from u :-)
Am willing to trade and share what info I have :-)
Nevel D. (Duane) ZIMMERMAN listed above...married a Mildred TIMMERMAN in
Louiseville,KY and they had 3 sons.... Anthony, Clifford, and Nevel Duane Jr.
