Narrative
"with them came also the illiterate twenty-five-year-old Lutheran weaver Michael Zeigler, who was soon to wed Andrew Shrager's daughter Katharina, and later become a Mennonite minister."
Became prominent in the Skippack Mennonite community. by John L. Ruth
alternate ref has him born in Salford Twp. PA, contractdicts all others and seems very unlikely. Same source has Melchior as father -- it is otherwise known that Michael and Melchior were brothers who immigrated together, so maybe Melchior Sr. was the father of both.
