Peter2 Zänger, Anthoni1 Zenger) was born abt. 1706, and
died Aft. Nov 1768. He married Margaretha
Feuer 23 Nov 1734 in
Notes for Philipp
Zenger:
Philipp is the younger
of the two known sons of Michael Zenger (the Swiss emigrant) and Maria
Elisabetha Kempf. Philipp's birth date is a reasonable estimate based on his
marriage date. Unfortunately, the baptismal and death records for Wangen for
most of the 18th century appear to have been lost.

Had Johann Philipp Zaenger died just a few years
earlier, I would have missed his descriptive death record from the Wangen civil
record book. I doubt that I would have been able to connect this tree with the earlier
generations with confidence (since Wangen church records of deaths and baptisms
have been almost completely lost for all of the 18th century prior
to the year 1792). As it is, the evidence of Johann
Philipp and
Like his father before him, Johann Philipp practiced the weaver’s trade. I suspect this trade may have been at least part of the reason for his travels into the Pfalz region, but I have not had much luck finding resources that discuss 18th century trade, crafts or other commercial interactions along this part of the (now) French/German border. I’ll keep looking …

Notes for Johann Jacob
Zänger:
I do not find a record
in the Wangen church or civil books for either the birth or death of (Johann)
Jacob Zänger; however, both of his marriages are recorded in the Wangen church
book. The first marriage, to Eva Riehl in 1768, mentions the parents of both
the groom and the bride. I am estimating his birth year based on the Johann
Jacob Zenger who appears on the 1763 Festo Paschates (Easter) confirmation
list, with his age then being about 15 years old. I
think it is reasonable to guess that Jacob was born in Wangen, but it is not
certain.

Notes for Johannes
Zänger:
It is likely that
Johannes was born in Wangen, though I do not have a direct citation; his brother Lorentz's 1796 marriage record does say that Lorentz
was "geboren zu Wangen", so there is a reasonable possibility that
Johannnes was as well.
This birth entry for
Johannes is based on the LDS Ancestral File posting by Grant Walker. I have not
yet (May 2009) been able to locate the source record that was used. The filmed
Wangen church book does not have baptismal records around this time period.
Johannes death record from the Kandel church book (LDS film 0193933) lists his
date of birth as 1 Feb 1770.

Notes for Anna
Margaretha Nuß:
The parentage of Anna
Margaretha Nuss is taken from the LDS Ancestral File posting by Grant Walker. I
have not yet (May 2009) been able to determine the source he used for her birth
date. Her death record, however, is in the Kandel church book, and her age
listed at 43 years old in 1819 is consistent with a 1776 date of birth.

Notes for Eva
Katherina Nuss:
In 1860 census listed
as "Catharine Singer" in the household of her son-in-law Thomas Will.
The LDS microfilm of
the Kandel area church records does not list baptisms from 1800-1809. However,
there are confirmation records of interest, because there is an Eva Catherina
Nuss, with age given as 13 years, 8 months, a daughter of the deceased Georg
Nuss, for the confirmation done on Domine Rogate, 1817. This is the 5th Sunday
after Easter, and since Easter of 1817 was on 6 April, the confirmation date
was in early May. Counting back based on her listed age, this puts Eva
Catherina's birth date around September 1803. This matches up pretty well with
the date estimated from the American census records.

Notes for Johann
Michael Zänger:
listed as Johann Michael [Carl] Zaenger where I first
encountered him (around 1998-1999) in the LDS Ancestral File. I am not certain
where the "[Carl]" name came from. Indeed, for a number of years I
didn't have any clear track of where he or any descendants of his might have
been - I had the records of the baptisms of the four children from the Kandel
church book, ... and that was it. Then in the early
fall of 2008 I found myself poking around in the on-line Ohio death
certificates at FamilySearch Labs where I happened upon the 1910 record for
Magdalena "Apffel", which listed her parents as "Michael
Zaenger" and "Eva Catherine Zapf". Well this is exactly what I
had from the German church record, so It gave me
enough incentive to dig deeper and look for this family in the

Notes for Eva
Catharine Zapf:
enumerated under her son Jacob as "Catharine Zinger"
in the 1880 census
there is a
confirmation record in the Kandel church book for an Eva Catherina Zapf,
daughter of Friedrich Zapf in 1818 on Sontag Jubilate (the 3rd Sunday after
Easter). In 1818, Easter was on 22 March, so counting back about 13 years and a
few months would put Eva Catherine's birth sometime in late 1804. However,
there is also another confirmation record (just prior to this 1818 one) for
another Eva Catharina Zapf, daughter of Johannes Zapf from Höfen. Eva
Catharina's marriage record would probably clear up who her father was, but the
record, which probably was around 1827, is not on the film of the Kandel church
book for this period (LDS film 0193931).

this family again in the corporation of Perrysburg; 40 year old Philip

have split up. A Phillip "Singer", age 50, is enumerated in

Notes for Catherine
Jäger:
"'Obituary
Mrs. Catherine Yeager
Zaenger 1829-1912.'
Mrs. Catherine Yeager
Zaenger was born in
Mrs. Zanger united
with the German Methodist Episcopal
Before coming to this
country she married to Mr. John Frederick Zaenger, who died Oct. 20, 1897. This
union was blessed with six children. Elizabeth, Margaret and Minnie preceded
her in death; and Christ, Fred and Fia survive to mourn her departure. Aside
from her immediate family, she leaves a nephew, Mr. Fred Yeager, other more
distant relatives, and many friends. She finished her earthly pilgrimage at her
home in Perrysburg, March 5, 1912, at the age of 82 years 8 months and 17 days.
The deceased was a
devout christian lady, loyal and true to her Savior.
Her life had its share of sorrow and hardships, but that seemed only to make
her faith stronger. Cheerful in disposition, she waited patiently on the coming
of her master, having frequently said that she was ready to go when the Lord
would call her. Her readiness gave her the joy that she would soon be with
Christ, her Lord. This, her longing, has been satisfied.
The funeral services
were conducted at the German Methodist church, on Friday, March 8, 1912, at 2
p. m., by Rev. J. E. Beal of Toledo, assisted by Rev. C. E. Severinghaus and
Rev. Holtkamp of Toledo, and Rev. E. J. Webster of this place."

Philipp4 Zenger, Michael3, Peter2 Zänger, Anthoni1 Zenger) was born 21 Dec 1829 in
Sarre-Union,
Notes for Jean George
Bohnert:
a bit of a mystery, or perhaps not -
Jean George's birth
record lists his mother's name as "Catherine Zaeng", and his 1861
Bohnert/Gratz marriage record and his death record spell the mother's surname
as "Zaenger". The ages of these two parents match well with the
parents of Marguerite and Chrétien Bohnert, who were John George Bohnert and "Marguerite"
Zaenger. Also on the 1861 Bohnert/Gratz
marriage record, one of the witnesses, and listed as the brother of the
(younger) Jean George Bohnert, appears by his age to be the son Chrétien of
John George (the elder) and Marguerite. These are the only persons of the
Bohnert and Zaenger surnames in the Sarre-Union civil records in this time
frame. Thus, in the absence of any other data to the contrary, it seems that
"Catherine" Zaenger was the same person as Marguerite Zaenger, who
married to Jean George Bohnert in Wangen in April 1829.

In the Dearborn
County, Indiana marriages there was a listing for a marriage between a George
"Singer" and an Elizabeth Runck on 15 May 1856. But without further
documentation, I couldn't make much out of it.
This impasse lasted
for a number of years.
Then one evening,
while poking around in Ancestry, I ran across the 1856 marriage listing again
and decided to do a little web searching, this time based on Elizabeth Runck's
name. In short order a search engine brought up a web page for the
"Singer-Page Family Gateway". Intrigued, I looked a little closer,
and this did indeed seem to be the Elizabeth Runck from
enumerated as "Louis" Singer in the 1880 census.

moons since Mr. Huber quietly tipped it off to the scribe that he was looking
for a wife, but the scribe failed to give publicity to the tip. The scribe
didn't see the consuming necessity. The scribe had every reason to believe thet
the public was "on." Lately Mr. Huber has realized that such an item
was totally unnecessary and now he and the scribe are on friendly terms
again."

The biography in the
1907 Marion County, Ohio history describes him thus:

For some time I had
thought that a younger John A. Huber, also found in the Marion, Ohio area,
might have been John and Vesta Huber's son, even though they were not shown
with children in any of the 1910, 1920 or 1930 census. However, this younger
John Huber was actually the son of an apparently unrelated family, William
David and Minnie (Yost) Huber of Logan County, Ohio. The younger John A.
Huber's wife was Ena Violet (McRill) Huber; he died in 1973, she in 1976.

Notes for Appolonia
Merk:
a post I made on Ancestry's 'Propheter' message board,
26 March 2003 -
"Hi Bob. I think
I have just about convinced myself that Appolonia IS Magdalena Merk. I say so
for the following reasons: (1) found Appolonia in the 1900 census in
John Merk 22 m cabinet
maker
Josephe 25 f do
Apolonia 19 f
Seamstress
David 14 m Cane hurdler do
Frank A. 4 m NY
Josephe Eisenman age 1
f OH
This, I submit, is
Apolonia Merk, who as Magdalena Merk married George Propheter in 1860. As you
have pointed out, George's daughter Anna (who married Fred Cook) is shown with
George Propheter at age 4 in the boarding house in ward 12. So if this
interpretation is correct, then I still need to explain the origin of Georges daughter Josephine, who was born in 1858 - why
wasn't she listed with him in the 1860 census, as 4 year old Anna was. I think
the answer is that Josephine is Appolonia/Magdalena's daughter, perhaps out of
wedlock and by another man. This "Josephine" may very well be the
same as the 1 year old girl, Josephe, given in the Merk household in 1860. I'd
be very interested to hear your thoughts on this."

Louisa's death
certificate also lists "Emily Kiene" as her mother, but this is
(apparently) simply in error.
The 1910 census says that
Louis Walck was Louisa's second marriage(!). This
explains the curious listing in the death certificate for the younger Edward
Von Stein, where his mother's maiden name was "Gellenbeck" (Cora was
the informant, she ought to know). This indicates that Louisa had a previous
marriage to a man named Gellenbeck; Cora was their daughter.
