    [Afton page 17] Jakob Zimmermann, Mennonite foreman appears and declares: I am the foreman of the Mennonites in the districts Freiburg, Emmendingen and Lahr. The births of the Mennonites in this range have formerly been inscribed in a book which I present here. According to this register Johann Zimmermann was born on 21 Feb. 1797 at Baldenweg. His children are not registered, because he is living in Lorrach since years I have myself married him with his wife nee Schneider, but there is no entry about that . . .

    !DEATH-SOURCE-CONFLICT: citing "A PORTRAIT & BIOGRAPHICAL ALBUM OF WOODFORD COUNTY, ILLINOIS." On pages 21-22 it says, "Mrs. Reeser [Barbara Zimmerman] was born in Baden Germany in 1830, and came to the United States with her parents who located on a farm in Delaware County, Indiana, where they resided until released from earth's trials at a good old age. ... (Barbara Reeser's parents never saw the United States and were probably 'released from earths' trials somewhere near their home in Baden, Germany.)"
