Regarding the resent searches for Ziegler's in Adams Co. PA, I did some
searching back through our family history book, "Hans Georg Ziegler's
Progress: with historical backgrounds of the Ziegler family" by Allen
and Elaine Ziegler.
Andrew Ziegler was born Sept 7, 1758 in York County PA. The
area of York Co. where Andrew lived became Adams Co. on January 22,
1800. Andrew's
first two children are listed as being born in PA. The next four are
listed as
being born in Straban Twp. The lasst child born in PA was John. Andrew and
family moved to Muskingum Co. OH between 1802 and 1807. The next child
born was
Samuel who was born in OH.
Perhaps some of this material will be helpful in your search.
The children were:
Margaret, b. 1791 (Just listed as being born in PA)
Mary Magdeline, b. 1792 (Just listed as being born in PA)
Jacob, b. 1794 Straban Twp.
Baltzer, b. 1796 Straban Twp.
Nicholas, b. 1800 Straban Twp.

Andrew and family moved to Muskingum Co. OH between 1802 and 1807.
