--Source of information: Gary Anderson (gandrsn@ocean.otr.usm.edu); However, since I first wrote to you, I obtained some additional information which does support the idea that her father was Jacob. My records indicated that in "The Ziegler Families and Related Families in Pennsylvania" by G.M. Ziegler (page 237?) the following information regarding Elizabeth's parents is provided: Barbara Clemens Ziegler (d of Barbara Clemmer Clemens and Dillman Kolb Ziegler) Jacob Hunsicker Godshalk (s of Sarah Hunsicker and Godshalk Schrager Godshalk). --Source of information: Carl H. GOTTSHALL<167 Rose Valley Rd. Pottstown, PA 19464>; Lists her name as: Barbara Kolb ZIEGLER (d of Barbara C. KOLB and Dillman ZIEGLER). From other info I (Michael J. GODSHALK) had received, I had 6 children listed. Carl listed 9 children (adding Helena, Barbara, & Jacob).
--Source of information: David GODSHALK (Hartsville, SC). Lists her date of birth as 1803. --Source of information: Carl H. GOTTSHALL<167 Rose Valley Rd. Pottstown, PA 19464>; With Carl's info, I was able to merge another Elizabeth GODSHALK, married to Peter Godshalk METZ. I (Michael J. GODSHALK) have 9 children listed and Carl only lists 8 (without Catharine Godshalk METZ).
--Source of information: David GODSHALK (Hartsville, SC). Lists his date of birth as 1804. --Source of information: Carl H. GOTTSHALL<167 Rose Valley Rd. Pottstown, PA 19464>; Lists his date of birth as 2 January 1804, but says Jacob died young. My comment (Michael J. Godshalk), what is/was young ... was he old enough to get married and/or have children?? Generally 'died young' means as a child.
