Patti,
I was hoping we had a connection seeing we are from the same town. But
it doesn't look like it. :( My Zimmermanns were from the opposite side of
town (sixth ward and town of Scott.
My grandfather John Zimmerman (he dropped one n from his name as did two
other brothers in Merrill. But the other 3 kept the double n). Reason unknown
to us.
Am looking for g grandparents.
