Charles, would you have an e-mail address for Jim Hinnershitz? I've had
a brick wall Zimmerman for as long as I can remember and possibly he (or
you) can help me--as at one time the family was in Berks County. My
problem ancestor is Jacob Zimmerman, born 1778, who lived in the Union
Township area (now Ringtown), Schuylkill County, PA since the early
1800's. He died there in 1845. He was married to Christiana Labenberg
(Lowenberg), daughter of Frederick and Catherine Lowenberg. He had 17
children. Jacob is somehow connected to Emanuel and Hannah Zimmerman.
Some researchers have said Emanuel is his father. However, all of
Emanuel's other children were born in the late 1790's and early 1800's,
and that wide spread of dates makes one wonder if Jacob and Emanuel
weren't brothers. Thanks for any help you can give me.

You should already have it, since I addressed my reply to the
ZIMMERMAN-L AND to "Hinnershitz, James" <Tbthing(a)aol.com>. But here it
is again.
The GEDCOM file I have of Jim's does not list the above ZIMMERMAN
names, but then it is over two years old. I don't have his latest
research data, even though I'm still checking out my ZIMMERMAN branch.
I read through a huge volume given me by a WALTER ZIMMERMAN, one of the
bus drivers we use on our bus trips. Absolutely no connection anywhere,
although many of them were Pennsylvania families.
Keep looking, and don't fail to check the next carpenter or
cabinetmaker you come across. Who knows.....

Incidentally, is your clock/calender a day slow? I almost missed your
message, since it came in the middle of yesterday's e-mails just this
afternoon. Check that out, too!
