Thank you for the postings on Catholic and Lutheran immigration history. And Martin Luther's wife- my how interesting. Never occurred to me.... Perhaps members of congregations immigrated in chuch groups? Please continue to add these reminders of our pasts :-) Sometimes I get too focused on one individual. Donna Seidel with Zimmerman on both sides of the family The Swiss Christian Zimmerman family that came to Kansas in the 1880s from the old country The Other Zimmermans who wound up in Dekalb County Indiana- I know nothing about these folks yet
