Sorry, I haven't any information on these Zahn's. My Great Grandfather and his
family (Mother, Father and siblings) came from Hanberg, Germany to the United States in
1880. GrGrpa August was 17, his father was born Feb 10, 1818. GrGr Grpa Johann Friedrich
August had 3 sons and 2 daughters. Karl F.W. born in 1846, Wilhemina born in 1849,
Fredericka W.E. forn in 1855, Heinrich born in 1859 and my grandfather August F.W. bonr in
1863. I am in the process of trying to trace Johann and his wife Johanna from Germany. I
am hoping the church records were they are buried will provide some information. The
census records have helped somewhat. If I can be of any further help, please let me
know.

Looking for any information on my one lone ZAHN.
Andrew/Andreas Zahn; born: November 1835. Came to the US in 1861 and
lived in Dane County, Wisconsin. Was a farmer with a large farm. In the
1900 Census, he is listed with my great great grandmother, Wilhelmine nee
Draves Woldt. They are listed as brother and sister.
Wilhelmine's parents were: Christof Drefs/Draves and Anna Christine
Brietenbach. I can only assume that Wilhelmine and Andrew were
half-siblings. The father (Zahn) of Andrew is unknown. They are both
buried next to each other in York Cemetery, Dane County, Wisconsin.
In the 1900 Census, Andrew is listed as single, so I assume that he never
married. In an earlier census, there is a listing for an 'Otto' Zahn, age
18, unsure if he is connected to Andrew or not.
Any info on my one Zahn would be greatly appreciated.
