Mon nom est Diane Strickler et je vis dans un petit village dans le sud de l'Ontario, au Canada, où 27 familles connues venu de Soufflenheim, Alsace, France.

Mes grands-parents étaient Schoeffter Catherine Jacques, qui mourut en 1805 et son épouse Madeline Roth. Elle a épousé Joseph mon Zinger en 1811 et tous leurs enfants sont nés à Soufflenheim.

Rosina Schoeffter était la fille de Joseph et son épouse Rosina Moser. Elle a épousé ma Joseph Hummel. Ils ont également été marié en 1811 à Soufflenheim et sont venus avec leurs enfants adultes à New Germany maintenant connu sous le nom Maryhill.

Je suis une école et secrétaire de la paroisse. Je suis désolé, je parle seulement anglais.

Nous avons visité avec mon Zinger & Hummel cousin à Soufflenheim ya 5 ans.

Thank you for all of this information!!
I am part of this family line as well!
I believe Philip Zinger and Charlotte Bleiler would be my great-great-great grandparents.
Their son Alexander Zinger (b. 1872/3) married Mary Ruth -
then, Their Son Alexander James Singer (b. 1907) married Audrey Elizabeth Taylor.
Alex & Audrey's Daughter Patricia (b. 1932) married Earl Hobbs
Earl was my grandfather. He passed away in about 1995
I would love to learn any more about the family line.
