Hello Everyone, I just started researching the ziegler's. What is known from my Aunt that she can remember is that Ernest Ziegler My grandfather was born in Barth,Germany and he was a merchant marine and jumped ship when docked in New York. Heinrich Ziegler m. Agnes Mueller b.1860-1880? and they had the following children. Ernest Ziegler b.1902 in barth,Germany d.1948 New York,USA m.Franziska Armbruster on 9/05/1925 Manhatten,New York,USA. Agnes Ziegler Herbert Ziegler Anneliese Ziegler My aunt feels there might have been more of them and she thinks a son died at a early age. Let me know if there is any connection. Children of Ernest Ziegler & Franziska Armbruster Annelisa b . 1926 Otto Ziegler b.1927 Erica b. 1941 Ernest b. 1945 Anyone else researching this line?
