Dear Ancestor

Your tombstone stands among the rest
Neglected and alone.
The name and date are chiseled out
On polished, marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who care
It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you
In flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
One hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left
Who would have loved you so.
I wonder if you lived and loved,
I wonder if you knew,
That someday I would find this spot,
And come to visit you.

Table of Contents

This Site is about families, parents, kids, grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, and extended family members, genealogy, family history through the generations, activities and interests that keep families together, pictures of family events, reunions and cherished moments with our loved ones, home movies, family projects, and all the things that make a family unique.

Here are several pictures related to the Zeigler's Family. If you'd like to have yours added, e-mail it to jafo842@yahoo.com. Please also include information such as birth & death date & locations, lineage (both parents if known) back to a common ancestor or as far as it can be traced, and any interesting tidbits, such as occupation or other highlights.

If you don't have a scanner, I do have one and I'm willing to scan a few photos for this page. [Or check you local photo shop or Kinko's; they may be able to scan them for you.] Send copies of your photos to Mike Zeigler, 879 Liberty Street SE Salem, Oregon 97302. Please include SASE if you want them returned. also send one or two blank 3.5-inch floppy disks and/or your e-mail address.

A Note About the Photos I don't have the original photographs (unless the individuals shown are part of my own family, of course). I optimize the images that people send me, shrinking them down to a fairly uniform size and using one or more programs to reduce the number of colors or shades of gray. That sacrifices some detail but makes the pictures load much more quickly. The images that you see below are thumbnails. Click on them to view larger images. If you'd like better quality images than you see here or more information about these individuals, please contact the person who sent me the original images.
