Hi Ruth: This is strange, my mother's name was Ruth Ziegler. The George I would be
related to was a George Ziegler/Zeigler born in Mar. 1882 in New York. My grandfather was
Frank Zeigler/Ziegler, Jr. was born in 1875 in New York also. George Sr. b. 1840,
immigrated from Germany in 1852. According to a 1900 census of Syracuse, N.Y., his
wife's name was Frances Wittbaum Zeigler b. 2-1843 in Germany. There had been 13
children from this marriage, nine of whom were living in 1900. Some of the childrens
names were: Frank,Jr. George, Ida, Elizabeth, John, Zaxe, and Mattie.
My grandfather, Frank Ziegler, Jr. married my grandmother in the town of Ridgeway, Orleans
Co., N.Y. 12-24-1900. I am unable to find out anything about him between 1875 and 1900.
I know his family lived in Pa. at sometime
