I simply would like to say that all I know is that my Great Grand Father was Phillip
Zenner who was born in Dubuque Iowa, and that his parents were from Luxembourg, he married
my Great Grandmother Emily Craft from Berne Switzerland.
My Grandfather was born in Portland Oregon - Arnold Steven Zenner, and then my father
Richard Arnold Zenner, and then myself, Lance Richard Zenner. We have 5 generations of
Zenner's who have lived out west here in Portland , Oregon.
I do know that our origins come from Luxembourg.
My Grandfather who was born here in Portland in 1903 had a story that he told me about two
Zenner twins who came over on a boat from Europe and had split up once they arrived in New
York. The story goes that they never made contact with each other after that. So we have
assumed that we surely have Zenner relatives floating around the eastern half of the U.S.
at least.
