hi, i am looking for the Zinssar family. I came across the Zinser message board. Both names are most likely pronounced the same. Could there be some kind of relation to both families? I believe Zinssar is Germanic. Please respond with any info.

My mother was a Zinser, Margarethe Zinser and her Fathers name was Andreas Zinzer and he died in 1940 in Germany, his wifes name was Helina Gittel and she died in 1960, they had 4 children, Alfred , Arthur, Lydia, and my mother, and thats about all i know about the family.

Hello,

lated to Magdalena Frey b.1812, Baden, Germany,married
Phillip Schweitzer? They had 10 children. They are my gggrandparents.They came to America, then went into Canada.Some came back to the states.This would be on my fathers' side. If you are I'd love to hear from you and share info.
