General Notes: Husband - Peter Ziegler, Jr.


After the death of his father, he removed from the neighborhood of Old Fort to Centre Hall, Pennsylvania. He remodelled a log school house that stood on the site of a hotel and store that were built in 1846 by Henry Witmer. He converted the school building into a dwelling house, where he died in 1840. He had a blacksmith shop on the opposite side of the street.
A history of Centre and Clinton Counties records the fact that Mr. Ziegler died from the effects of frozen feet incurred on a trip from the Old Fort.
