EACONWAY,
That is what I am trying to find <G>. The only first name we have is
Maria Zimmerman. She died 23 June 1953 at Gerlingen. No birth date or
place, no marriage date or place.
I am working on a Schopf ancestry line, just got back a few more
generations to Johann Georg Schopf born abt 1750. The Schopf family
was one of the oldest in Gerlingen and are found in the first church
register of Gerlingen from 1560.
I suspect Maria Zimmerman married a descendant of Johann Georg Schopf,
but do not know which one or when or where. I have checked the IGI and
did not find her marriage record there. If Maria died at age 80, then
she would have been born in 1873, and could be a relative of your
great-great grandfather Zimmerman. Do you have his birth year and
birth place? Do you have information on your great-great grandfather
Zimmerman's parents, siblings, and children?
Jay

My great-great grandfather was a Zimmerman who came from Gerlingen
to
America, Iowa to be exact abt 1872. Do you have any first names?
=========================
Does anyone have any info on Zimmerman's in Gerlingen Germany or that
general area of Germany in the 1870-1960 time period.
I am searching for information on a Maria Zimmerman who married a
Schopf, she died 23 June 1953 at Gerlingen per some bank estate
settlement papers.
Any help appreciated.
