Hello - does anyone know anything about the Zieglers in Oxton? I've seen records of Alexander C Ziegler who I think lived on Talbot Road, Laura Ziegler who was married to William H Ziegler who lived on Bidston Road - William is buried in Flaybricks. I'm interested in finding out about where they came from, what they did and where they lived - does anyone know anything about them? I found an entry on ancestry but the name is spelt ZieglAr and I'm not sure if that's either correct or the same person.....?

Thank you,
Jemima

Record Type Marriage
Marriage Date 8 Jun 1882
Marriage Place New York, Pennsylvania, USA

Laura Hamilton Paton

According to the 1891 census, William was born Woodchurch and Laura, born Canada. Transcription, ZieglAr is wrong.

Thank you, Bert. I have William H. Ziegler as being born in Woodchurch in 1857, but on his grave stone it says 1856 (5th July), he's buried in Flaybrick. His death is written on his tomb as 1896. I know he married Laura Hamilton Paton who was from Ontario I believe, they were married in New York. Then I have an entry for John Hasting Ziegler who was born in July 1851 and died in Birkenhead 31st October 1927.

I also have a record of Alexander C Ziegler born in 1884 - was he William's son do you think?

Where do you access the censuses? Is it via Ancestry?

Yes Ancestry but there are other places that are useful.

Alexander Caryl Zeigler, born 1883 Birkenhead, mothers maiden name, Evastaphiev.

Parents, John Hasting Zeigler, Charlotte C Evastaphiev.

Charlotte was born in the USA and I assume they married over there.

When I used to go to Shaftesbury Boys Club in Birkenhead one of the 'houses' there was called Ziegler

1891
Aspinall dies and is replaced as President in the following year by J. H. Ziegler, a cotton broker who is one of the club's benefactors.
