Shari - You asked if anyone else had Zimmermann ancestors in
Wisconsin. My great great grandparents lived in Hilbert, Calumet Co. in
Wisconsin. They moved there about 1878 from Calumet in HoughtonCo, MI.
Before going to Michigan about 1872 they had lived in Ozaukee and Washington
Counties in Wisconsin. They emigrated from the Rhineland about 1850 although
I cannot find the ships passenger list of the ship on which they sailed. My
gr gr grandfather was Michael Zimmermann who was married to Maria Gerlings in
Rhineland. My great grandmother was Catherine Zimmermann who was born in
1852 somewhere in the Milwaukee-Ozaukee Cos. area. Siblings were Nicolaus,
Mary, Johanne, Gertrude and Christian. Catherine married Florian Herzog (aka
Bohrer) in 1873 in MI. Unfortunately Zimmermann is such a common name it
drives you crazy. Does anything fit in with your Zimmermanns? Lois
