Hello, David.
It could be possible that they are related in some way , my Christian and your Gabriel,
but not as brothers. As you can see in the outline that I have done so far as it pertains
to my family tree, the Christian Ziegler that I have was born in 1822.
What I have is by no means complete. The reason the Ziegler family tree bacame important
to me was that Theodore Drewes, one of my relatives, had passed away, and the children
were spread throughout the Ziegler and Guritz family. Theodore Drewes married Elizabeth
Ziegler.
It became even more important when I realised that not only had a Drewes married a
Ziegler, but also, a Ziegler had married a Guritz. Another Drewes relative had married a
Guritz, as well.
I am going to look into this a little more tto see if I may be able to be of more help. I
am always curious about the weave of families. Another thing that I have noticed often
happens in families is that when a sibling has children, they will sometimes name there
own children after their own siblings.
