Leon and Bonnie Zeigler,
Probably not over here, as my line is from Philip Ziegler who immigrated
in 1746 from Switzerland as per the Floyd Mason book the Ziegler Family
Record 1990 <
http://home.rica.net/masonf3150/> or
http://home.rica.net/masonf3150/ . I am sure if you contact Floyd Mason
he can fill you in as to whether he is familiar with your line of
Ziegler's. Whether we are related in Germany - Switzerland is beyond my
research expertise. Usually he responds to any mention of his book or
this Ziegler line if he is monitoring his emails? As I am sure you have
seen there were lots of Ziegler/Zeigler/Zigler in Pennsylvania.

This message is for Stan Follis-
We may be related. We are from the Ziegler line of Berks County,
Pa. Our ancestry is from Johann Adam who came here from Germany and
bought land from the Penn brothers in Pennsylvania. We have taken
pictures of the original Ziegler homestead in Penn that is still in the
family today. Johann's son Andreas was the father of John Adam. John
Adam moved from Pa to Ohio and his son Harrison relocated to Missouri
where our branch of the Zieglers reside today. I find your reference to
a book from Floyd Mason intriguing. Is it still in print? Where could I
find this book and do you think we are related. I know there are
several Phillips in the line. Is there anything we can do for you??

Thanks,
Leon and Bonnie Zeigler

Allen
Does the Allen County Indiana <
http://www.acpl.lib.in.us/> Library
have
a copy of your book? They have something like 50,000 family
histories
<
http://www.acpl.lib.in.us/genealogy/index.html> , but I don't find
yours listed in the card catalog. Have you contacted them to see if
they
would like copy? I descend from the Philip ZIEGLER line of Berks
County,
Pennsylvania written by Floyd Mason and haven't seen anything
that
connects these two Ziegler families.
