Bruno Hugo was one of my great-grandmother, Helena Olivia Ziegenfuss Cauble's, brothers. I am the Ziegenfuss YDNA project administrator. Gottlieb's descendants have tested, along with others of the Odenwald and Eichsfeld "Z" lines (of PA and GER)and they share common lines. We are still searching for Gottlieb and Fredreka Trenkmann Ziegenfuss' parents.

Greetings!
I think we might be researching the same family. I have an ancestor Peter Ziegenfus b. August 9 1798, Obermilford twp. Northampton, PA, d August 19, 1855, Ft Wayne, IN. I have his father as Jacob and mother as Esther Neidlinger. Perhaps he is a brother or cousin of someone in your family tree? The spelling can be frustrating, but the location of Northampton, PA is very interesting. See my public tree Snyder. I would be very pleased to compare notes with you.
Best Wishes
Barbara

Elmer Ziegenfus

mikeb1955 — 2010-11-10 03:40:15Z

Anyone know of Elmer Ziegenfus born 1882, Schuylkill Haven. Father was Elias, mother (I think) was Mary. He was sent to an orphanage in Pennsylavania when he was young. I think because his parents had died.

David,
I believe I have information on Elizabeth Neidlinger,b. May 1, 1912, m. Peter Zegenfuss on April 11, 1829 in Ohio, with 13 children, born between 1830 and 1855, including William Charles and Angeline...check Public family tree - Snyder. Just starting, a lot of my info is family history, not public records, but your info looks very close to what I have.

Mary Rosenberger of Bucks Co PA b 1813;

andrussvalerie — 2010-01-09 21:40:45Z

daughter of Henry Rosenberger and Anna Derstine; married in 1834 to Peter Ziegenfuss b 1807 is my Ggrandmother.

I’ve inherited a sampler she made when she was 10. In addition to the design it gives her name and date (‘Mary Rosenberger her work 1823’) and the names ‘Sarah’ and ‘Edward’.

I’d originally thought that Sarah and Edward were her parents, but clearly they are not. I’m now wondering whether they might be siblings deceased in infancy (although there’s no willow in the sampler).

Does anyone know who on earth they are?

And does anyone have a date of death and/or place of internment for Mary?

Thanks very much

Madeline S. Ziegenfus, b. abt. 1906 in Allentown, PA

I was looking for some Ziegenfuss info on the family of Gottlieb and Fredereka Sophia Louisa Trenkman Ziegenfuss (Bruno's parents) and saw your postings. I am the gr-grand-daughter of Helena Z. Cauble, Bruno's sister. FYI, we have a Family Tree DNA Ziegenfuss surname project. Two of the gr-grandsons of Gottlieb have tested. Researchers have long said that the 3 main lines of Z's are out of the same line of Germany. We have tested the 3 lines (2 men from each, including our guys). Guess what? They match in DNA markers. The 1930's researcher was correct. The lines called "North German Line" (Gottlieb's line that came to TX in 1885); the "Odenwald Line" and the "Eichsfeld Line" all match in Y-DNA. We may never know exactly what male in Germany we come out of, but at least we know we tie together.

Thank you for making all of this information available!

The Wiegels from Niederhausen, Nassau could be a different family and it seems that they are not connected to my family as there is a distance of about 250 miles to mine.

I'll also inform every user that my homepage at www.ziegenfuss-genealogy.de contains about 10,500 individuals now.
