Hi All,
I've been up against a brick wall for about a year with my research. I
have tried everything that I can think of to over come this wall. I've
been researching Isaac M. Zeigler Sr who lived in Franklin County PA
(Orrstown / Pleasant Hall area) from 1840's (going off the census) to
his death in 1899. Isaac was born in 1824 (I'm not sure where). I've
been trying to findout who his parents were. So far from the 1830
census I'm guessing he came to Franklin County from either Beford/Fulton
area or from Montgomery County PA (at least that is the only Isaac's
listed - another guess that his father name was Isaac). I've been
unable to find documentation to back up either one of these theories.
Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated. I'm posting this
message also on the Sheaffer mailing list since his son Isaac M. Zeigler
Jr. married Rose Jane Sheaffer in 1898 with the small hopes that someone
might be able to help me out.
Thanks in advance!!
Amy
