Brad,
I haven't gone back that far yet.
Abraham Zeigler born about 1794 married I believe Elizabeth Horner and
they moved to Cumberland County PA. They had 7 children, Sophia, Mary,
Melchor, Elizabeth, Elnora, Jacob. I descend from Jacob, then Nathaniel,
then John Jacob and then my mother, Gwendolyn.
The History of Cumberland Co, states that Abraham came from Montgomery Co, PA.
I believe that Abraham's father was Michael Zeigler whose will was probated
in 1822 and written in 1809. The will lists the following children:
Abraham, Jacob, Isaac, Dillman, Catharine, Elizabeth, Michael and two
grandsons William and Andrew. The wife is not listed.
There is also a will for William Tyson, naming his daughter, Barbara,
deceased, wife of Michael Zeigler. dated 1805.
Is this the same family that you are speaking of?
I would love to be on your mailing list.
