Families Found

When I have found families of interest in the census, in general I have recorded that information on other pages on this website, such as the Families from Stundwiller page. Here are some families I have found who do not connect to other pages:

• In SALMBACH:
  • ZIMMERMANN: Henri 43, Elisabeth 39 (nee STEPHAN), Pierre 17, Jacques 8, Elisabeth 3
    • Probable match to these families from the 1850 census of Eden, Erie County, New York:
      • ZIMMERMAN: Henry 56, Elizabeth 57? or 52?, Jacob 22, Elizabeth 17
      • ZIMMERMAN: Peter 31, Catherine 29, five children born in NY
      • According to Sandra Miller (e-mail correspondence Jul-2005, and bulletin board posts on Ancestry.com), Peter is the son of Henry, and Catherine's maiden name is Ebersole
