"I'm just beginning to do research on my great grandfather who was born in
Zurich, Switzerland. My grandfather lived in the Milwaukee, WI area during his
lifetime."
You'll want to consider including the local German newspapers in your list of research
sources. There are death notices for an Otto Zimmermann in 1895, Otto A. Zimmermann in
1920, and a mention of some sort for the 1897 marriage of Otto Zimmermann & Gussie
Hahn.
"Milwaukee's German Newspapers; an index of death notices and related items"
(1844-1950).
