Introduction

The Author

For a number of years, my ambition has been to

trace my 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 who 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 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 NoraBell 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 way to our great ancestor, Peter Ziegler's grand-father, NicholasZiegler. who landed in Philadelphia. September 16, 1738.

Ziegler Family Tree

In German^

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 Eofcanus Ziegler, a cotemporary of Martin Luther, and who is buried in

&e cathedral at Erfurt. It is interesting to note, also, that Luther's mother was

Margarethe Ziegler.

The commercial origin of the Ziegler name accounts largely for th< of

numerous family groups in America, having no immediate connection one witlSp

"the first United States Census, of 1790, enumerates 294 Zieglers, 55 of sa

whom were heads of families distributed as follows: Massachusetts, 1; Pennsyl- ha

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, in

Zeqler, Zeiqer. Zeigler, Zigler.dl1

Several prominent groups are included in this list of 55 families an

Michael Ziegler. generally referred to as the Ziegler pioneer in Pennsylvania ca

was naturalized in Philadelphia in 1730. He came to America before 1717 MHe was born about 1680. With two other brothers, he settled in Montgomery 1<

Country forming the town of Zieglerville. The original farm has remained iiitn

the Zieglar family until recently. .

Christ Lutheran Church of York. Pennsylvania, the first Lutheratj

church in York County, was organized in 1733. In the list of 24 heads o*

families appear the names of Philip. John George and Jacob Ziegler. It «

likelv that these three were brothers. John George and Philip came over m

1727. St

NICHOLAS ZIEGLER came over in the QUEEN ELIZABFTHi or

September 16. 1738. NICKLAS ZEGLAR arrived on the EDINBURGSepfehember 16, 1751. All the evidence points to NICHOLAS as our GREAlto

ANCESTOR. He lived and died in Codorus Township, YorkCount«o«

Pennsylvania. It is likely that John George. Philip. Jacob and NICHOLAS^?

were closely related. ... • JNNot less than a score of Zieglers from York County are listed as serving

in the Revolutionary War. Among them are Jacob, Nicholas, Michael, an!

Peter. The services of Major David Zieglar. not of York County, are wel^

known. He was born in Germany in 1748. and served with Washington ii^

1777-78. Later he became the first mayor of Cincinnati.p]

In the Boundary Dispute between Pennsylvania and Maryland in whick^.

Marylanders attempted to preempt land along the Susquehanna river almost fry

York, a group of settlers, including Jacob Seglar, Jacob Seglar. Jr., and Philip

Seglar, becoming convinced that the territory rightly belonged to Pennsylvania^joined with others in issuing a protest to Governor Oglevie of Maryland, r^which they say in part: "We therefore .... do resolve to return to our dufri

and live under the laws and Government of Pennsylvania, in which Proving

we believe ourselves seated

"Signed with our own hands this eleventh day of August Anno Don1736."

Oh October 21, 1736, Gov. Oglevie issued a warrent for the arrest <* s]

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

aoi about 70,000 acres, surveyed in 1722, "commonly called the Manor of

:1 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

3l said lands by the Indians of the Five Nations, which claim the said Indians

1- have now effectually released to us."

o\ Rupps Thirty Thousand Names, a list of those landing in Philadelphia

ir(in Colonial times, includes the names of numerous Zieglers arriving at manydifferent times. What the relation of many of these groups to one another is,

:s and what their relation to the parent stems in the districts from which they

a came, is certainly problematical. They were Catholics, Protestants, Jews and

7 Mennonites, coming principally from Germany, France and Switzerland.

ryTodav. the Ziegler family is well nioh innumerable, and is scattered throughout

ii^the States from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

it,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

H;on the Queen Elizabeth, September 16, 1738. The name frequently appears in

>fcjthe York County annals. His wife's name was Catharine. She is supposed

LTfto have been the daughter of John George and Catharine Sohn. This has not

tylbeen verified—it is probable that it is not correct. His will was probated

^jjune 3—July 25, 1791. The children were: Elizabeth, married Adam Fissel;

Catharine, married John Henich; Jacob (deceased); Michael, oldest son;

n|Nicholas.

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

d*

ZIEGLER FAMILY TREE

Nicholas Ziegler, both of Codorus Township. He was born about 1760, pre-

sumably in York county. His wife is supposed to have been a Dawson.

They had five children; I. Elizabeth; II. Jacob; HI. Peter; IV. George;

V. Michael—the first three in York county. About 1795 they removed to

Baltimore county, Maryland, where Mrs. Ziegler died about 1802.

Mr. Ziegler was married again to kebecca Roates, (Margaret Ann

Rhoads). She was born in 1776, died in 1869 and is buried in the German

Reformed cemetery at Jacksonville, near Nittany, Center county, Pennsyl-

vania. They had six children: VI. Catharine; VII. Susan; VIII. John; IX.

Daniel; X. Kesiah; XL Julia Ann.About 1808 the family removed 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 Ziegler 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 owned by Mrs. Calvin R. Neff, (MaryElizabeth Ziezler) a grand daughter of Michael Ziegler, and great grand-

daughter of Peter Ziegler.

Later, Peter Ziegler removed to Abdera, and from there to Flemington,

Clinton county, where he died April 14, 1819 or 1820. He was buried in the

now abandoned Presbyterian cemetery near Lock Haven. No trace of the

grave remains, the grave-stones having been carted away.Much of the history of Peter Ziegler and of his eleven children is con-

tained in a letter written to me dated Jan. 15, 1900, from Henry Ziegler, son

of Michael, and written by his son Franklin P. Ziegler, who now lives at

State College, Pennsylvania. Uncle Henry got this information from the Petei

Ziegler German Bible that passed through the flood of 1889. He received

the Bible from John Keith, the husband of Elizabeth Ziegler Keith, oldest

daughter of Peter Ziegler; and he in turn gave it to his aunt, Mrs. Julia AnnZiegler Hare, widow of James Hare and younqest daughter of Peter Ziegler,

She was living at the time (about 1870). with her daughter, Mrs. Josh Reish,

who lived on a farm at Flemington Bridge, and where the Bible passed

through the flood. Its last custodian was Miss Daisy E. Reish, daughter of

Josh and Susan Reish, at Mill Hall, Pennsylvania. While in her keeping, the

Bible, together with other valuable family papers, was destroyed by fire.

These Bible records have since been compared with and verified by individual

family records and traditions, and are ascertained to be in the main correct.

THE PETER ZIEGLER FAMILY

I. ELIZABETH ZIEGLER, eldest daughter of Peter Ziealer, wasborn in York county, Pennsylvania, November 1, 1788. Her sponsors at herbaptism were Michael and his sister Elizabeth Ziegler, presumably her father's

father and Aunt. She was married to John Keith.

ZIEGLER FAMILY TREE

WILLIAM KEITH, deputy Liutenant Governor of Pennsylvania,

May 1717—June 1726. had much to do with the Boundary Dispute between

Pennsylvania and Maryland. Later, as already noted, several of the Zieglers

were involved in the same dispute. The final settlement came in the form of

the Mason and Dixon Line, in 1763—1767.

John and Elizabeth Ziegler Keith settled in the wilds of Huntingdoncounty, about twenty miles south east of the town of Huntingdon. Some of

the family still live at Robisonia. They had eight children: A. Julia Ann; B.

Sophia; C. Susan; D. Charity; E. Sarah; F. William; G. John; H. Christina.

A. Julia Ann married Christ Miller. Children: Henry, George, Mary.They settled in Indiana. B. Sophia married John Hazzard. Children: Simon,

William, Sarah, Julia Ann. C. Susan married Samuel Sailor. Children:

Rachel, Ann, Eliza, Jane, Mary, William. D. Charity married John Shoop.Children: Elizabeth, Sarah, Emaline, Lauretta, Alice, George, William, Allen,

Andrew Myers, Frank; 3. Hoy; 4. Sophie Elizabeth; 5. Christina.

R. B. Keith, the son of Andrew Myers Keith, and great, great grand son[.of John and Elizabeth Ziegler Keith, is a successful merchant at Orbisonia,

[through whom much of this information was received.

G. John; H. Christina, married 'William Crotsley. Children: Jane,

Martha, Ellen, Susan, John, Wesley, Leonard.

!II. JACOB ZIEGLER, my grand father, the oldest son of Peter Ziegler,

"born Dec. 5, 1791, in York county, Pennsylvania. He married Catharine.Lesher, October 15, 1815. Mrs. Ziegler was born September 10, 1798. They.lived for a time at the Ziegler homestead, near Earleytown, west of Old Fort.

From 1826 to 1828 Jacob Blacksmithed in Sinking Valley, (Pleasant Valley),-'near the Pleasant Valley Lutheran church; from 1828 to 1830 near Petersburg,• at Neffs Mills. From there they removed to Maple Shade, Cranberry Town-/ship, Venango county, in 1830. Jacob Ziegler died May 4, 1868. Mrs.IZiegler died Jan. 9, 1875. They are buried in the church yard of the Lutheran

[church that stood on the corner of grand father's farm.

Mr. and Mrs. Ziegler landed in Venango county with one horse, a cow,his blacksmith tools, and about fifty dollars. They settled on 150 acres of

' timber and brush land.' Catharine Lesher Ziegler is a descendent of Col. John Lesher, who withhis father, Nicholas Leshere, came to Oley Valley, Berks county, Pa. f as earlyas 1726. They were French Huguenot refugees. Mrs. Ziegler's mother wasa Minnich, she was desended from Baron Munch of France, who, because ofhis conversion to Protestantism, "during the reign of Louis XIV, was strippedof his possessions, his chateau burned, and he himelf killed." His kinsmen in1685 fled to Germany.

; Simon Munch and his brother, Peter, descendents of Baron Munch,r came to Oley Valley in 1736. Simons son, Christopher, of Bernville, had5 twelve children. His daughter, Catharina, married George Lesher, about1797. As near as has been ascertained, these are the parents of Catharine

Lesher Zieqler. If this is correct, then Jonathan Miles Lesher, who lives on his

farm near Franklin, Pa., and who has been blind for many years, and upon

whom I called, would seem to be a son of my grand mothers brother, and my(

A REV HENRY ZIEGLER, D. D., my father, was born August 19.j

1816' on the home farm west of Old Fort. From ten to fourteen years of age he

worked at his father's blacksmith anvil. After amoving to Venango county,

in 1830. he assisted in grubbing out the farm, and worked for neighbors in

Winter, splitting rails and flailing wheat, helping to support the family.

Immediately after his conversion, in 1834. he started a movement which

resulted in the organizing of a Lutheran church, the entire familyj"™%^S '

the same, services being held in his father's barn The following year 1835. he,

walked to Gettysburg. 250 miles, carrying al his possessions on his back

enterinq Pennsylvania College, in preparation for the Lutheran ministry. He

graduated from the Seminary in 1843. He immediately became co-pastor with

Father J. P. Shindel at Selinsgrove. (including Sunbury, Lewistown, Miffhn-

burg and Liverpool), introducing English preaching in the entire community.

From 1845 to 1850 he served as Missionary Superintendent for the

newly orqanized Pittsburg Synod, in western Pennsylvania, travelling 11.001J

miles on horseback, for a compensation of $1 500 including perquisites, for

the five years. From 1850 to 1853 he served the Williamsport pastorate com,

posed of six congregations. In 1852 he organized the First English Lutheran

church of Williamsport. The original building still stands on Third Street.

From 1855 to 1858 he served the Salona charge, which also was composed

of six congregations. In several of the churches noted revivals were

conducted. He was an ardent revivalist, at the same time insisting on

catechetical instruction.# , e

.'

In 1858. he became the co-founder with Dr. Benjamin Kurtz of the

Missionary Institute—Susquehanna University—at Selinsgrove. During his

incumbency as theological teacher and general superintendent, he prepared

one hundred men for the Lutheran ministry. Through these twenty three

years, until 1881, he did the work of three men. During his years of retirement

he prepared the copy for an enlargement of Luthers Small Catechism, which

was adopted by the church as its official text book. He died at Selinsgrove.

November 26. 1898> triumphant in the Christian faith.

Henry Ziegler was united in marriage to Eliza App at Selinsgrove,

May 19, 1844. Mrs. Ziegler is a daughter of John App, who was a prominent

farmer in the Susquehanna Valley. It is due to his generous donations that

the Missionary Institute was located at Selinsgrove.

THE APP FAMILY

Mathias App. the first of the family to locate in Penns Township, neat

Selinsgrove. appears to have come from Northampton county. "Already io

1766. "App's Mill" two miles north of (old) mouth of Penns Creek, is men-

ZIEGLER FAMILY TREE

IN PERRY COUNTY

JOHN SHARP ZIEGLER, son of Philip and Margaret Ziegler, wasborn in Harrington Township, York Conty, Pa., Jan. 19, 1813.

Philip Ziegler, father of John Sharp, was born about 1746; died in

York Co., Aug. 4, 1829. Philip and Margaret had the following children:

juliana, Catharine, John Sharp, Sarah and Mary Ann; the last three being

minors at the time of their father's death. Just how Philip Ziegler and our

ancestor, Peter, are related is uncertain. It was thought that they werebrothers; this is not likely, however. My father considered the Perry Countybranch as closely related to our line. It is probable that Philip is a son of

Philip Ziegler, Sr., who was one of the twenty four original members of Christ

Lutheran Church, York, Pa., in 1733. It is likely, too, that Nicholas Ziegler,

Sr, is our common ancestor, and that he is a brother, also of the three Ziegler

charter members of Christ church.Philip Ziegler, Sr. was born about 1712. He came to America in 1727.

He married Margaret Schmidt in Christ Church, York, Pa., Nov. 21, 1737. On0,ct. 30, 1736, the Hon. Thomas Penn patented to Killian Smith 200 acres;

to Philip Ziegler, Jr. Killian Smith had three daughters: Anna Margaret, whomarried Philip Ziegler; Anna Marie, who married Andrew Nebinger; MariaAgnes, who married Peter Wolf. The 200 acres of the Killian Smith estate

were sold by Killian Smith and Andrew Nebinger to Peter Wolf, Oct. 14, 1763,

for 80 pounds.John Sharp Ziegler married Mary Susan Roth of Dover Twp., York
