I've "rescued" an old photograph of Frank ZIEGLER which was taken at the J.
E. Rote Studio in Lancaster, PA. The photograph appears to have been taken
in the 1870's with Frank likely in his 20's or 30's at the time. Based on
limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding
Frank and his family:
Frank E. ZIEGLER was b. 1850 in Pennsylvania to parents Francis Xavier
ZIEGLER (1817-1902) and Jane Perry MARTIN (1817-1902). Frank was one of 9
children born to this couple including, Catherine "Kate" C. or G.; Joseph;
Marie or Maria Jane; Agnes V.; Richard B.; Frank E.; Clement J.; Eugenie E.;
and Mary F. ZIEGLER, all born between 1839 and 1857. Frank died in 1922.
Census records provide the following details:

Hoping to locate someone from this ZIEGLER Family so that the photograph can
be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family, or you know
someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
