(Preface,

In the following record we have given such in-

'^ formation as could be obtained in the different lines

of our widely scattered family. We have done con-

siderable traveling to gather data and have spent

^ much time in correspondence. Many have manifest-

^^ ed quite an interest and answered our inquiries

promptly, while others were either indifferent or

handi-capped in one way or another, so that we some-

^^ times had to write frequently to the same party for

^ the desired information. Sometimes when the in-

formation did come we had to return it to have dis-

crepancis filled out, corrections made, or have it alto-

gether recast.

After all this had been accomplished and the

material was before us, it was necessary to decide

upon a plan to arrange the same in a way so that all

might easily and readily trace their family connec-

tion and their line of descent. In order to do this wefinally decided to take each generation by itself andnumber consecutively each individual in that genera-

tion and when we came to describe the family of one

in the following generations we simply referred to

number and generation where the name had occurred

before. This plan we followed until we came to the

seventh generation when we simply gave the family

description right in connection with their parents

and so we did not number the members of the seventh

generation. Take for example my father, Daniel

Ziegler, No. 67, Gen. IV ; he is given as the oldest

son of Jacob Ziegler, No. 13, Gen. Ill ; if you refer

back to Gen. Ill, No. 13, you will find that Jacob was

the third child of Phihp Ziegler who again was the

fifth child of the first .Philip. Now coming downfrom my father No. 67, Gen. IV, you will find his

children from No. 233 to 250 in Gen. V, and his grandchildren from No. 459 to 537 in Gen. VI, and his great

grand children are given right in connection with the

names of the grand children.

You will notice that in some hues of the family

especially there is great deficiency of dates. Evi-

dently some of our correspondents thought it either

unnecessary or found it impossible to supply them.

In the'main we have spared neither time nor space to

include all the information that was supplied us.

I acknowledge much valuable assistance first

from my father who traveled considerably and suc-

ceeded in tracing out several clues to members of our

family which had lost sight of each other and could

never have been traced back if it had not been for

his wide acquaintance and his good memory. lamalso indebted to Adam Miimich, of Trotwood, Ohio,

for information concerning the branch of the family

ir Ohio, John Wesley Ziegler and Mary M. Miller of

South Bend, Ind., Jacob Heagy, of Annville, Pa.,

and a number of others who have gathered data or

imparted information; of these we spaak in recogni-

tion as we meet their names in the genealogy.

You will notice that I invariably omitted the

date of birth of those who were married into the

family. I did this for the sake of simplicity, first; also

I really did not think it necessarily belonged to the

family geuealogy. Many such records even omit the

name.We have refrained from giving an extended

history of the different members of the family for

several reasons :

l3t. Of some of the most prominent mem-

PREFACE. 5

bers of the family we did not have sufficient informa-

tion at hand to give a biography so that those whomI knew best would very naturally have come in for

the fullest sketch. This would not only not be fair

treatment but might have partaken of vanity, as na-

turally those most intimately known were those of

nearest kin to me.

2nd. It would have also made this volumemuch larger than was desired and,

3rd. To write up biograpbical sketches wouldhave taken much labor and time which we did not

have at our command.Altogether our family is one of which we need

not be ashamed. The thought might indeed occur to

us whether our life is such that the fair record be

not marred by us.

"^ ZicQlcv—jfamil^ IRccorb.

Our Ancester, Philip Ziegler, was born in

Bern, Switzerland, in 1734, and at the age of twelve,

or in 1746, he emigrated to America. This agrees

with the record found in an old Bible still in the pos-

session of the family of Eli Ziegler near Rehersburg,

Berks Co., Pa. These dates also agree with Rupp's"Thirty Thousand Names."

Brumbaugh in his History of the Brethren

differs from this, for he places the year of his emigra-

tion as 1734. Noticing that this date agrees with the

year of his birth in the above record, the mistake

may have occurred in that way.

He married Rsgina Reguel, anativeof Wurtemburg, Germany, and settled on a farm near Rehers-

burg, Berks Co., but which was at that time Lancaster

Co. This farm has been in the Ziegler name ever

since. Emanuel Ziegler, a member of the fifth gen-

eration, now lives upon this pleasant old homestead.

Upon this farm was built the Ziegler Meeting House,

a small brick structure which was replaced by a

commodious frame building in 1875.

In the orchard on this old homestead is a small

grave yard containing the unmarked grave of our

ancestor.

It is evident that sometime during his lifetime

he also purchased another farm adjoining the formerand extending back to the Swatara. This also has

been in the family to the present.

8 ZIEGLER FAMILY RECORD.

Philip also secured the passage of his motherand his sister to this country. This sister marriedGossert and from this family are descended most of

the families by this name in Berks and LebanonCounties. They settled on the homestead on the

Swatara just west of the Ziegler farms.

It is altogether likely that our ancestors be-

longed to the Mennoaite Church in the Old Country,

but probably for the reason that there were none of

that persuasion convenient, Philip joined the Re-formed Church.

Morgan Edwards in his account of the mem-bers of the early congregations in the year 1770 men-tions Philip Ziegler and wife as members of the

Little Swatara Congregation of the German Baptist

Brethren, and a large majority of the succeeding

generations belonged to this denomination.

There have been exceptions to this, however,and ministers and church workers of other persua-

sions are also among the respected and honoredmembers of th'S family.

Taking a general survey of the family whoserecord here lolLjws, we notice that while it has not

been a royal lineage there hava been some of its

members that have occupied prominent positions in

the affairs of county and state.

Habits of fru'^a^ity and industry, a simple,

honest, un.>stentatiou3 life and the inspiration of aninvigorating and healthful rural home life have had a

most salutory effect in developing people who have in

many inst mces, in the later generations, becomeleaders in their respective cillings.

As we f 3II0W out the different branches of the

family we notice in the ranks ministers of the gospel,

bishops in the Church, doctors, lawyers, college

professors, members of Legislature, county officers,

school teachers, prominent business men and someof the most prominent and successful farmers that

till the soil.

Christian Frantz was oae of John Prantz's

family at the Swatara which was sorely visited bythe Indians in one of their raids, killing the

mother when the father was away aud carrying all


the children captive, except the least one whom theydid not find. John, Christian and a sister, whowere taken captive, were held until the close of the

French and Indian War when the father, learning of

the whereabouts of his children, went and recover-

ed Christian and his sister. Their stories of hard-

ships aud adventure were quite thrilling.

We have now come with our Record to the Sixth

Generation and for simplicity we shall give in con-

nection also the Seventh Gen. wherever the line runs

down that far. We believe that in connection with

members of the Sixih Generation to give their

children and perchance grand children will not so

complicate the Record that it can not easily be follow-

ed out. Many would probably think that this plan

would have worked all right through the Record but

after much investigation and comparison with other

genealogical records we decided on present plan.

We will still number members of Gen. VI.

This ends the family record as far as obtainable

and only up to 1903, mostly so.—that being the time

when most of the information was sent in, or gather-

ed together.

As we know each other better, may the bond of

union become stronger until by a faithful and loving

obedience to the blessed Gospel and an implicit faith

and trust in the blessed Christ, who brought life and

immorality to light, we shall all be permitted to


join in the happy and glorious and increasing family

re-union "on the happy golden shore" whither manyof our forefathers and mothers have preceded us, and

who could not unite with us in such a gathering here.
