Looking for ANYONE related to the following ZIEGLER family -
John George ZIEGLER (1810-1886) - born in Baden
His wife Juliana (maiden name unknown) (1813-1887) was born in PA
They had six children, that I know of (I believe all children born in PA):
1. John George Ziegler (b. unknown, died prior to 1888). Ten children
were mentioned in Juliana's (his mother) will (written May 20, 1887).
These 4 were mentioned when Julina's will was settled (May 25, 1888):
a.John George Ziegler
b. Edward Ziegler
c. Ge(?)t(?)y Ziegler
d. Bessie Ziegler
2. John Frederick Ziegler (1835-1891) - my GGgrandfather - married
Emma OUDINOT (1838-1922). I believe that all of their children were
born in PA:
a. George Henry (b. 1855-d. before 1943)
b. Emma Virginia (b. 1856-d. before 1943) married Elwood Showalter.
She ran a Showalter's shoe store in Reading in 1909.
c. Annie Laurasteen (b. 1859-1943) married James MATZ - my Ggrandmother
d. Julia Ellsworth "Julianna" (b. 1861-d. before 1909))
e. William Anthony (b. 1868-d. before 1943)
f. John Gerlach (b. 1868-d. before 1909)
g. Sarah (Sally ?) (d. after 1943) married ZIMMERMAN, lived in Egg
Harbor, NJ in 1943
h. Samuel (d. after 1943) I believe he had one son. Lived in
Philadelphia in 1943
i. Louisa (d. after 1943) married WENDEROTH, lived in Glenside
(northwest of Philadelphia) in 1943
j. Minnie (d. before 1909)
3. Charles Rudolph Ziegler (d. after 1888)
4. Henry Ziegler (b. 1846, d. after 1888)
5. William Leonard Ziegler (b. 1848, d. after 1888)
6. Juliana Ziegler (b. 1853, d. after 1888) intermarried to Winkler
NOTE: There is a strong Reading Railroad connection! John George
Ziegler was foreman "in the P. & R. flue department" for 30 years and
his son William held the same position as of Feb. 1, 1886 (the date
of John George's obituary). The 1870 Census lists John George Sr., Will
and Henry as "Loco. Mech. Journ.", John F. as "Loco. Mech." and John
F.'s son Henry as "App. to Loco. Mech.".
