  • Ziegler Genealogy
    ZIEGLER GENEALOGY Nicl1olas -- -- Michael -- -- Peter Family Tree Compiled By JOHN A. M. ZIEGLER, Ph. D .. D. D. fvlinister - Author - Writer Sponsored By The PETER ZIEGLER ASSOCIATION PUBLISHED BY THE AUTHOR Glenn Printing Company Huntin~ton Park California Introduction For a number of years, my ambition has been to trace n1y ancestors to the one who came from Ger­ many. I knew it must have been in the Early Colon­ ial period. When publishing "Father and Son," a life-sketch of my father, Rev. Dr. Henry Ziegler, and of myself, I could not say that my father descended from a certain Ziegler ,vho came across at a definite time. This, therefore, was my problem. Collecting material for our Family Tree began. in a leisurely manner, more than thirty years ago. The Author The serious effort, however, was started about two years ago. Plans were completed the past summer for an extended visit to Pennsylvania, in order to form the acquaintance of our numerous relatives. and to visit the places where great grandfather, Peter Ziegler, and my father lived. A Ziegler family reunion was held in Hasson Park, Oil City, Pennsyl­ vania, August 26, 1933, with more than two hundred present. A Peter Ziegler Association was effected, Captain Harley Jacob Ziegler of Franklin being elected President: E. Willard Ziegler of Oil City, Vice President: Miss Nora Bell Ziegler of Oil City, Secretary-Treasurer. The Association unanimously ·; agreed to have the "Tree" published, the writer being the compiler. Subsequently, I visited Center, Clinton, Huntingdon, Blair, Snyder, Perry, York and Lebanon counties, Pennsylvania, also Baltimore, Maryland, From the York.

  • An Analysis of the Importance of Extension in Accounting for the Post-Carboniferous Subsidence of the North Sea Basin
    An Analysis of the Importance of Extension in Accounting for the Post-Carboniferous Subsidence of the North Sea Basin By John G. Sclater, Steven J. Hellinger, and Mark Shorey April 18, 1986 The University of Texas at Austin Institute for Geophysics 4920 North IH 35 Austin, TX 78751 University of Texas Institute for Geophysics Technical Report #44 SUMMARY Post Carboniferous sedimentary deposition in the Central North Sea basins can be separated into three major periods: Permian, Triassic and mid-Jurassic through present. Most efforts to explain the basin within an extensional framework have concentrated on the post mid-Jurassic subsidence. These efforts have ignored the large amount of prior extension required to account for the observed crustal thinning and the substantial Permian and Triassic sediment fill. In addition the models predict a mid- Jurassic through early Cretaceous extension that significantly exceeds estimates of the horizontal displacement observed on high angle faults on multichannel seismic lines. We show in areas of minimal pre-Permian subsidence that adding two earlier phase extensions, one in the late Carboniferous through early Permian and the other in the Triassic produces a nearly horizontal late Carboniferous crustal thickness. The time-dependent extensional model required to account for the three periods of sediment deposition gives an excellent match to the observed subsidence history of the basement. We present an analysis of a recent seismic reflection line nm across the Central Graben in the vicinity of published refraction and well data. We show that the extension required in the third phase of the three phase model is compatible with the observed displacement on the high angle mid- Jurassic through early Cretaceous faults.

  • Results of Recent Onshore and Offshore Mapping
    Netherlands Journal of Geosciences — Geologie en Mijnbouw | 85 – 4 | 245 - 276 | 2006 Subsurface structure of the Netherlands – results of recent onshore and offshore mapping E.J.T. Duin, J.C. Doornenbal, R.H.B. Rijkers*, J.W. Verbeek & Th.E. Wong TNO Built Environment and Geosciences – Geological Survey of the Netherlands, P.O. Box 80015, 3508 TA Utrecht, the Netherlands. * Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Manuscript received: September 2006; accepted November 2006 Abstract This paper presents depth maps for eight key horizons and seven thickness maps covering the onshore and offshore areas for the Late Permian to recent sedimentary section of the Netherlands. These maps, prepared in the context of a TNO regional mapping project, are supported by nine regional structural cross sections and a table summarizing the timing of tectonic activity from Carboniferous to recent. These new regional maps enable the delineation of various structural elements but also reveal the development of these elements through time with improved detail. Since the latest Carboniferous the tectonic setting of the Netherlands changed repeatedly. During successive tectonic phases several pre-existing structural elements were reactivated and new elements appeared. The various identified regional structural elements are grouped into six tectonically active periods: Late Carboniferous, Permian, Triassic, Late Jurassic, Late Cretaceous and Cenozoic. This study demonstrates that many structural elements and fault systems were repeatedly reactivated
