Hi Ardy,
My Grandfather was born in Iowa. His name was Walter Leroy Zimmerman and he
was born 30 Sep 1887 in Center Point, Linn County, Iowa and died 7 Jul 1969
in Kansas City, Wyandotte County, Kansas. He was the youngest of the 11
children of George Washington Zimmerman and Maria Jane Church. Any bells
ringing?
Rita
