EDGEFIELD ZIMMERMAN(N) updates
The data posted here is documented … sourced … and supported … by original images of Germany church records.Specific members of the immigrant families reflected in the Palatinate London listing of 1764 … recorded in the Colony of South Carolina Council Chamber records of December, 1764 … referenced in the Revill list of 1939 … are listed herein with other verified ancestral members.Irresponsible posters have posted TOTALLY inaccurate data of these families … (SEE INDIVIDUAL) brought about by their incomplete methods of research ... and their propensity to merely copy (based on ‘gut feeling’) incorrect data without doing any research for reputable source, or verification, data.Having been notified of this fact, their flawed data continues to remain posted and utilized. In a nutshell, regardless of what one reads in books written decades ago, or even recently for present day books using those ‘old’ books for reference, PHILIPP and FREDERICH WILHELM ZIMMERMAN were not related in any capacity.More importantly, my ancestor FREDERICH WILHELM ZIMMERMAN was not the son of HANS JACOB ZIMMERMAN(N) or ANNA BARBARA ISLIKER from Switzerland.YES, the FREDERICH ZIMMERMAN(N) referenced as being born 3/30/1730 was from Switzerland … and died there eighteen (18) months later on 9/14/1731 !!!Thus he could not be the FREDERICH referenced in these flawed family posts as being the son of my ancestor.Nor could the other FRIDERICH brother, whose d/o/b was recorded in 1733; and d/o/d in 1753.Based on these documented findings, it is our firm belief that my ancestor, FREDERICH WILHELM ZIMMERMAN, and family, hail from the Rhine River valley of ‘old’ Germany.If you are a descendant of these families, and wish to confirm our findings regarding your ancestors, feel free to view the film sources we provide as reference ... and make copies of the filmed church book pages at the same time for your files. You may also contact us if desired. We have researched other members of the London Palatinate group and have located verifiable data on several other families as well. Unfortunately the village of my ancestor, FREDERICH WILHELM ZIMMERMAN, who arrived in Charles Towne in 1764-65 aboard the (English) Frigate Union, has not been located as of this writing.
