General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Zimmerman

---

He and his wife with their family resided for a time on a farm a short distance from the present village of Grapeville, Pennsylvania, but in the early eighteen-fifties he bought a farm about four miles north of Greensburg, where he lived the remainder of his days. Prior to the completion of the Pennsylvania Railroad he was engaged for some years in hauling goods from its western terminus to Pittsburgh, the western terminus being near Greensburg. He is, therefore, entitled to be included among the old wagoners of the early days.
