I'm not sure if there is any connection but my Family of Zimmermans immigrated to Canada in the early 1900's my father is Robert and my grandfather was Albert apparently my g.grandfather was a Robert Zimmerman who came from Buffalo in early 1900's to eastern Canada and then to Victoria B.C. I'm just new to this and this is all the info I have so far.I'll watch the digest for anything interesing, Thanks Bert
