I feel pretty sure that this Ziemer family came from the area of Koslin, on the Baltic
sea, in Pomerania. My family comes from roughly that same area and settled in Milwaukee
County and Dodge County. I have been trying for some time to connect the Ziemers from the
Koslin area with mine, who are from the same area, but many of the records have been lost
because of destruction at the end of World War II. I had correspondence with a distant
cousin of these Ziemers a few years back -- I think that one of the Kewaunee Ziemers was
Caroline, who married his ancestor's brother. I am sorry, I am not at home and
don't have the whole story in front of me. More soon. P.Z.F.
