WILLIAM ZIEGLER,
a member of the board of trustees of Troy Township, is a leading
citizen of this section and resides on his valuable farm of 114 acres,
which he has under an excellent state of cultivation. He was
born in Delaware Township, Delaware Co., Ohio, Mar. 30, 1861, and is a
son of Frederick and Sarah (Biber) Ziegler.
FREDERICK ZIEGLER was also
born in Delaware County and still survives, being a resident of Berlin
Township. His father, Reuben Ziegler, was born in Berks
Co., Pennsylvania, and came to Delaware County and Township, at a very
early day. Frederick Ziegler married Susan Biber
and they had seven children, namely: William; Anna, who married
Clay Walker, residing in Missouri; Frederick, who
resides at Marshall, Arkansas; Alice, residing in Berlin
Township; Luther, a resident of the State of Missouri;
Edward, residing in Troy Township, and John, who resides in
Delaware County. After many years of residence in Delaware
County, Frederick Ziegler went to Missouri, but in the spring
of 1907, he settled in Berlin Township. He is a Democrat.
For many years he has been a worthy member of the Lutheran Church.
William Ziegler was reared in Delaware Township
and there attended the public schools. He has always found his
chief interest in farming and has been very successful in his
agricultural operations. In 1902 he came to Troy Township,
having resided for some years previously in Marlborough Township.
Since settling here he has become identified with the public affairs
of the township to such a degree that he was elected a member of the
Board of Trustees and is making a useful official.
Mr. Ziegler married Attie Schneck, who is
a daughter of Thomas Schneck, of Troy Township, and they have
had the following children: Clyde C., Karl, Otto, Harry,
Lowell, Clara B. and Florence. Mr. Ziegler, with his
family, belongs to the Lutheran Church at Delaware. In politics,
