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. County Historical Society I received a voluminous transcript of all the Ziegler records available in the county. This has been invaluable. It points the ,vay to our great ancestor, Peter Ziegler's grand-father, Nicholas Ziegler. \vho landed in Philadelphia. September 16, 1738. Huntington Park, California. John A. M. Ziegler. 1935 Ziegler Family Tree In Germany The Ziegler name originated in Germany. Ziegler means "tile:" a Ziegler is a tiler, a manufacturer of or dealer in tile and tile kilns. The name. Ziegler, therefore, is of commercial origin. A principal branch of the family in Germany is organized as the ~.iegler Familien Verein. Mr. Otto Ziegler of Dresden is president. They had their origin in Langensalza in Thuringia, where some of the direct descen­ dants still live. ' In 1928 there was completed a Ziegler Chronic, that contains more than 500 related families, and dates back to 1378. The Ziegler escutcheon displays a Golden Griffin on a blue field, and it can be seen on the sarcoffagus of Rev. Doctor Eobanus Ziegler, a cotemporary of Martin Luther, and who is buried in ~e cathedral at Erfurt. It is interesting to not~. also, that Luther's mother was Margarethe Ziegler. 8 ZIEGLER FA~IILY TREE In America The commercial origin of the Ziegler name accounts largely for thE numerous fan1ily groups in America, having no immediate connection one wid another. The first United States Census, of 1790, enumerates 29~ Zieglers, 55 ol whom were heads of families distributed as follows: Massachusetts, 1; Pennsyl­ vania, 41: Maryland, 5: Virginia, 1: South Carolina, 7. The average size of family was 6. 3. The name was variously spelled: Ziegler, Zeagler, Zeggelar, Zegler, Zeiger. Zeigler, Zigler. Several prominent groups are included in this list of 55 families Michael Ziegler, generally referred to as the Ziegler pioneer in Pennsylvania was naturalized in Philadelphia in 1730. He came to America before 1717 He was born about 1680. With two other brothers, he settled in Montgomei,? Country formin~ the town of Zieglerville. The original farm has remained ir:; the Zieglar family until recently. _ Christ Lutheran Church of York, Pennsylvania, the first Lutherat~ church in York County, was organized in t 733. In the list of 24 heads oil families appear the names of Philip. John George and Jacob Ziegler. It i~ Jikelv that these three were brothers. John George and Philip came over in 1727. NICHOLAS ZIEGLER came over in the QUEEN ELIZABETHi September 16, 1738. NICKLAS ZEGLAR arrived on the EDINBURG, Sept4 ember 16, 1751. All the evidence points to NICHOLAS as our GREA1' ANCESTOR. He lived and died in Codorus Township, York Count'Yj Penn$ylvania. It is likely that John George, Philip, Jacob and NICHOLA:t were closely related. ·! Not less than a score of Zieglers from Yark County are listed as servin!' in the Revolutionary War. Among them are Jacob, Nicholas, Michael, an Peter. The services of Major David Zieglar. not of York County, are we known. He was born in Germany in 1748, and served with Washington H 1777--78. Later he became the first mayor of Cincinnati. In the Boundary Dispute between Pennsylvania and Maryland in which Marylanders attempted to preempt land along the Susquehanna river aln1ost t, York, ~ group of settlers, including Jacob Seglar, Jacob Seglar, Jr., and Philifi Seglar, becoming convinced that the territory rightly belonged to Pennsylvani~ joined with others in issuing a protest to Governor Oglevie of Maryland. j: which they say in part: "We therefore .... do resolve to return to our dut•,: · and live under the laws and Government of Pennsylvania, in which Provine, we believe ourselves seated ...... "Signed with our own hands this eleventh day of August Anno Dorr 1736." On October 21, 1736, Gov. Oglevie issued a warrent for the arrest d .. ZIEGLER FAMILY TREE these parties-" for contriving signing and publishing a seditious paper and writing against his Lordship and his government." The real historic justification for this declaration by the Seglars and others, is the assurance of Thomas Penn, given about this time, that he would issue patents to persons who had settled by his permission on lands in Lancas­ ter county (now. York,) on the west side of the Susquehanna river, in a tract of about 70,000 acres, surveyed in 1722, "commonly called the Manor of Springetsbury, so soon as the separate tracts could be surveyed." The ten years delay in the issuing of such patents was caused by "the claim made to said lands by the Indians of the Five Nations, which claim the said Indians have now effectually released to us." Rupps Thirty Thousand Na mes, a list of those landing in Philadelphia in Colonial times, includ·es the names of numerous Zieglers arriving at many different times. What the relation of many of these qroups to one another is, and wliat their relation to the parent stems in the districts from which they came. is certainly problematical. They were Catholics, Protestants, Jews and Mennonites, coming principally from Germany, France and Switzerland. ?Todav. the Ziegler family is well nioh innumerable. and is scattered throughout ;the States from the Atlantic to the Pacific. PETER ZIBGLBR GENEALOGY . NICHOLAS ZIEGLER, who lived and died in Codorus Township. York county. Pennsylvania, is accredited by the York County Historical Society as being our great ancestor. He was born about 1710. He arrived on the Queen Elizabeth, September 16, 1738. The name frequently appears in the York County annals. His wife's name ,vas Catharine. She is supposed to have been the daughter of John George and Catharine Sohn. This has not been verified-it is probable that it is not correct. His will was probated June 3-July 25, 1791. The children were: Elizabeth. married Adam Fissel: Catharine. married John Henich; Jacob (deceased): Michael, oldest son; Nicholas. MICHAEL ZIEGLER of Codorus Township, oldest son of Nicholas and Catharine Ziegler. His wife's name was Catharina. The will was probat~ ed Sept. 23-0ct. 22, 1814. The children were: Peter, Jacob, Elizabeth, John, Philip. Catharina, George, Michael, Nicholas, Susanna ,Rachel. 11Peter to have. ~y blacksmith shop... The name Michael also appears frequently in the York county annals. There mrty be some question as to which Nicholas is our ancestor. the one- ,ve have selected. or the Nicklas Zeglar who came across in t 751. The evidence 5eems to point to the former. PETER ZIEGLER HISTORY PETER ZIEGLER of York County, Pennsylvania, the subject of this sketch, and our ancestor, is reputed to be the son of Michael and grand son of I ZIEGLER FAMILY TRRE Nicholas Ziegler, both of Codorus Township. I-le \Vas born about 1760, pre­ sumably in York county. His \Vife is supposed to have been a Da\vson. They had five children; I. Elizabeth; 11. Jacob; Ill. Peter; IV. George; V. Michael-the first three in York county. About 1795 they removed to Baltimore county, Ivlaryland, where Ivlrs. Ziegler died about 180_2. Mr. Ziegler was married aHain to i·{ebecca Roates, ( Margaret Ann Rhoads). She was born in 1776. died in 1869 and is buried in the German Reformed cemetery at Jacksonville, ne<lr Nittany, Center county, Pennsyl~ vania. They had six children: VI. Catharine; VII. Susan; VIII. John; IX. Daniel; X. Kesiah; XI. Julia Ann. About 1808 the family rernoved from Baltimore county, Md., to Center Co., Pennsylvania, remaining about a year at Millheim, Penns Valley. In 1810 and during the war of 1812, Peter Ziegler conducted a hotel at Earleytown, about a mile west of Old Fort, and near the Zieg·ler home farm. It is here in all probability that several of his children were born. The farm was occupied in succession by his sons, Jacob and Michael, and several of their children were also born here. The farm is now o~,vned by Mrs. Calvin R. Neff, ( Mary Elizabeth Ziezler) a grand daughter of Michael Ziegler, and gre~t grand­ daughter of Peter Ziegler. Later, Peter Ziegler removed to Abdera, and from there to Flemingtorit Clinton county, "'here he died April 14, 1819 or 1820.

    86 Indiana Magazine of History railroad builder of the land,” as one who made stockholders happy by the rise in their securities resulting from his manipulation, but who did not seemingly make them sad when, as was more commonly the case, his actions depressed the value of their stock. Gould’s association with western railroads, notably the Wabash, Missouri Pacific, and Union Pacific, was accompanied by construction of new lines and the acquisition of feeders, but though profits were made for a time and dividends paid, all were brought to receivership by spite construction, constant and destructive rate cutting, payment of unearned dividends, extravagant purchases of Gould-owned lines, and excessive costs that benefited only Gould. In his effort to rehabilitate Gould, Professor Grodinsky maintains that these breaches of rail- road agreements and rate cutting benefitted the American economy, and pictures Gould, surely with tongue in cheek, as tilting against monopolistic practices and high rates. His conclusion, despite the most damning evidence to the contrary, is that “the public benefited from his [Gould’s] activities as a man of business in the railroad indus- try and in the field of speculative capital” (p. 610). Few of Gould’s contemporaries could have accepted such a judgment. Gould apparently left no papers which have been available to the author in the preparation of this study. Use has been made, how- ever, of materials on the Burlington Railroad in the Newberry Library, the Villard papers in the Harvard Library, and in other smaller col- lections well known to historians of transportation. Heavy reliance is placed on railroad and financial journals and metropolitan news- papers.

    Abraham Lincoln and the German Immigrants: Turners and Forty-Eighters

    Abraham Lincoln and the German Immigrants: Turners and Forty-Eighters Introduction Reporting from Springfield, Illinois, on December 9, 1860, only a matter of days after the election, Henry Villard, correspondent for the New York Herald, made a remarkable assertion about Lincoln’s election to the presidency: In Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Wisconsin, native Republicans now openly acknowledge that their victory was, if not wholly, at least to a great extent, due to the large accessions they received in the most hotly contested sections from the German ranks. That an immigrant population should be the decisive element in a national election was unprecedented. Despite a cautious reservation (“if not wholly, at least to a great extent”), Villard offered a controversial assessment. He was saying, in effect, that Lincoln owed his success to German-Americans.* Historians since Villard have noted, on occasion, the formidable German vote for Lincoln, but assertions about its significance have been challenged. It is not surprising that the claims have been criticized or not taken at all seriously. Historians have ignored Villard’s perspective. Statistics available for the 1860 election do not provide the evidence required to corroborate Villard’s position. Are there other options? Is there a convincing test for Villard’s assertion about the German factor? Can it survive close scrutiny? I. The Radical Turners of New York “[Sigismund Kaufmann’s] name is indelibly linked with the history of the Turner Union and the Turner movement as one of the founders of the New York Turnverein. He was first chairman for many years. He was also one of the founders of the [national] Turner Union, whose chairman he became at that time.” [Heinrich Metzner], “Sigismund Kaufmann,” August 24, 1889 II.

    1945 to 1948: America's Long Road to the Federal Republic of Germany (West) By Robert A. Selig NOV MAY SEP Close 25 35 captures Help 3 Mar 01 - 28 Jun 09 2005 2006 2007 June/July 1998 1945 to 1948: America's Long Road to the Federal Republic of Germany (West) By Robert A. Selig The December 1948 report by General Lucius D. Clay, commanding officer in the American Zone of Occupation in Germany, to U.S. President Harry S. Truman was full of optimism. "I think in looking back on 1948 we can look back on it as a year of material progress, and I think we can take considerable satisfaction in the state of affairs." Clay thought that 1948 had "brought back a real hope for the future among the 40-odd million people" in the American and British zones. This progress and hope, however, had only been possible because by the winter of 1947/48, American policy vis-à-vis Germany had undergone a complete reversal since the unconditional surrender of the Wehrmacht (Armed Forces) in May 1945. With surrender came the time for retribution. In the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) Directive 1067 of April 1945, General Dwight D. Eisenhower was instructed to occupy Germany "not...for the purpose of liberation but as a defeated enemy nation." Allied occupation was to bring "home to the Germans that Germany's ruthless warfare and the fanatical Nazi resistance have destroyed the German economy and made chaos and suffering inevitable and that the Germans cannot escape responsibility for what they have brought upon themselves." In Potsdam in July, British Prime Minister Clement Attlee, Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin, and Truman set their common goals—the four Ds—for Germany: democratization, denazification, demilitarization, and decartellization (the break-up of trusts and industrial conglomerates).

He was known by the name of Juan de Fuca, and the name was subsequently given to a portion of the waters he discovered. As far as known he made no official report of his discoveries, but he told navi­ gators, and from these men has descended to us the knowledge thereof. Richard Hakluyt, in 1600, gave some account of Fuca and his voyages and discoveries. Michael Locke, in 1625, pub­ lished the following statement in England. "I met in Venice in 1596 an old Greek mariner called Juan de Fuca, but whose real name was Apostolus Valerianus, who detailed that in 1592 he sailed in a small caravel from Mexico in the service of Spain along the coast of Mexico and California, until he came to the latitude of 47 degrees, and there finding the land trended north and northeast, and also east and south east, with a broad inlet of seas between 47 and 48 degrees of latitude, he entered therein, sailing more than twenty days, and at the entrance of said strait there is on the northwest coast thereto a great headland or island, with an exceeding high pinacle or spiral rock, like a pillar thereon." Fuca also reported find­ ing various inlets and divers islands; describes the natives as dressed in skins, and as being so hostile that he was glad to get away.

'To Marie McKitric'I{ Downes EDITORIAL INTRODUCTION In 1930, upon the recommendation of the Committee on Co-­ operation between the Ohio State Archaeological and Historical Society and the local historical societies and departments of history in the colleges and universities of the State, a series of publications called Ohio Historical Collections was established. The first volume in this series, Party Politics in Ohio, 1840,1850, by Edgar Allan Holt, was published in 19 31, and the second volume, Chase and Civil War Politics, by Donnal V. Smith, appeared the same year. Due to decreased appropriations it has been impossible, until recently, to issue other volumes, although the material was available and had been accepted by the Editorial Committee. In 1934 the Board of Trustees of the Ohio State Archaeological and Historical Society authorized the discontinuance of the series known as the Publications and approved a policy of issuing the more lengthy and monographic contributions in the Collection series.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4.
