Have you checked the Ellis Island records. I found a Paul Zimmerman who came from Berlin
in 1908 age is different but only by a couple of years. this Paul was 11. Here is what I
found:
Fred Zimmerman age 54, gardner and wife Bertha(looks like not clear) 57 and son Paul age
11. The manefest is stamped Non Immigrant Alien. The close relative still in Germany is
Anna Barsch, mother-in-law and he stated they were going to NY, Springbrook to son-in-law
George Lebramms. They gave place of birth as.: Fred's I can't read.
Bertha's Sipivoy? can't make it out and Paul's as Friedenthal. Their place of
residence was Berlin and they sailed out of Hamburg on the 15 March 1908 on the SS
President Lincoln. Hope this is the right one. Good luck on your search.
