My great-grandfather was J. Peter (Jempi) ZENNER (19 Jun 1885 - 21 Jan 1981).
His parents were Jean Peter ZENNER (8 Jan 1838 - 21 Nov 1900) and Anne-Marie BISSEN (1840 - May 1915).
Jean Peter Zenner's mother was Barbara FORCEE.
My g-grandfather J. Peter Zenner left Luxembourg to work in France and then England. He came to the U.S. in 1908, settling in Idaho where he remained until his death in 1981.

He states in his biography, "[my] Uncles Peter, Nickolas, and J. Peter came to Caledonia, MN, in about 1860...Uncle John Peter had learned the tinsmith trade and moved to Chicago, IL." "We were there several times and some of them here [in Idaho]."
