Jo. I noticed your Zimmerman line from Pennsylvania and Ohio. Remember the brother who found me and you commented about? His adopted name is John Zimmerman. He researched his adopted lines extensively and they link to PA and possibly to OH. I am going to mention your blog to him. I suspect he will contact you.
ReplyDeleteThat would be cool if I'm related to his adopted family, particularly because I'm stumped on the Zimmerman line, lol! I wrote my 3rd great grandfather Henry Y Zimmerman, here: http://jahcmft.blogspot.com/2013/10/henry-y-zimmerman-1795-1853-my-3rd.html. Show it to your brother and see if it rings any bells!
