They were married July 4, 1912 in Sedalia, Missouri. I don't know which church but he at least was a Methodist when I knew him late in life. I'd be happy to pay any costs. I would like any information I can get but am especially trying to find names of parents, siblings, cousins for either of them. Please write to Michele Matthews [email protected]

Hello, I am researching my ZIMMERSCHIED family in the Pettis/Benton County Missouri areas. In my research I have found that there are two distinct and different ZIMMERSCHIED families which at this time I cannot connect to each other and I was hoping someone out there would know if they connect and where they connect. Here is the information on the two families that I have. First ZIMMERSCHIED family (from which I descend) John Adam ZIMMERSCHIED b. 20 April 1806 Nassau, Germany d. 3 August 1861 Bebra, Pettis County who married Maria Philippine EBERHAN in Germany. John Adam and Maria Phillippine came to America circa 1854 and they had 7 children that I know of--they were: Johann William ZIMMERSCHIED (married a SCHUPP) b. 14 Oct. 1845 Caroline Catherine ZIMMERSCHIED(married a CALLIES) b. 16 August 1847 Katherine Henrietta ZIMMERSCHIED (married a SCHUPP) b.22 Dec. 1849 Henrietta Elizabeth ZIMMERSCHIED b. 24 June 1853 and died as a infant Meriah Caroline ZIMMERSCHIED (married a KREISEL) b. 8 June 1855 Carl Frederick Adolph ZIMMERSCHIED (married a SCHAPER) b. 14 November 1857 George Adam ZIMMERSCHIED (married a TRAUGETT) b. 21 November 1861 Second ZIMMERSCHIED family Ferdinand ZIMMERSCHIED b. 24 June 1812 supposedly in Germany-not sure d. 18 Feb. 1867 who married Phillipine YOST. They supposedly came to America circa 1840. Ferdinand and Phillipine had 10 or 11 children that I know of--they were: John Adam ZIMMERSCHIED (married a SCHUPP) b. 9 August 1835 Schanett ZIMMERSCHIED Phillip ZIMMERSCHIED Henrietta ZIMMERSCHIED (married a SCHUPP) Louis/Lewis ZIMMERSCHIED Lucinda ZIMMERSCHIED Frederick ZIMMERSCHIED( 1st married a YOST, 2nd married a (SCHUPP) John Ferdinand ZIMMERSCHIED (1st married a HUNTER, 2nd married a ROSENBURY) b. 11 Dec 1849 Betty ZIMMERSCHIED Lizzie ZIMMERSCHIED Carl ZIMMERSCHIED(married a SCHAPER) b. 4 Nov. 1857 Were John Adam ZIMMERSCHIED and Ferdinand ZIMMERSCHIED brothers?

Offenthal is a town a few miles north of Darmstadt.The ZIMMER and SEIPEL ancestry can be traced back to the 1600.

Nancy, I don't know whether anyone has gotten back to you by now or not, but births were not registered in Pettis County until 1867. You can find them at http://www.sos.mo.gov in their archives. And, yes, there was a Pettis County, at least as far back as 1860. I could find No Callahans or Callaghans in any Pettis County town for the 1860, 1870 or 1880 US census. Maybe James worked for the railroad? Those workers moved around a lot. If I can help you further, please let me know. Carolee
