I don't know that we're connected. Baden is Northwest of Schaffhausen by some
distance and Zimmermann being a very common name (carpenter, I'm sure you know)
the likelihood isn't high. As I'm able to further pursue my Zimmermann lines
I'll continue to post each generations. In his obituary his parents were Joh.
(Johannes?) Zimmermann and Magdalena Gaffer.

Charles, lived in Germany
Sophia Josephine, m. Coones
John, b. ca 1823, Holland?, d. 6 Feb 1881. m. Mary Boercke in New York bef.

I would like to know the ancestry of Joseph (also of his wife, Christine).
