# Note:
From research by Bobby Tillery:
"Leonhart immigrated through Philadelphia in 1732. Johann and Barbara
lived in the Mt. Pony area where he had land on Stoney Run adjacent to
Frederick Zimmerman, son of Christopher Zimmerman. Johann Leonhart died
as a young man, age 46, in Culpepper Co., where his Will is recorded in
Will Book A for 1757. Children who are mentioned are: Christopher,
Leonard Jr., Elizabeth, Ann, and Susanna. One of the appraisers of his
estate was Nicholas Kabbler, another Mt. Pony Neighbor.
A Johann Leonhardt Ziegler of Sinsheim, Germany was denied permission to
emigrate in 1750. The relationship of these two individuals of the same
name is not clear but it would apper that the origins of the family have
been found. It was from the same area that the Pinnegar (Benninger)
family originated. They were associated with the Zieglers in Virginia.
Thus, research on the Ziglar and Pinnegar families should be directed to
the records in the Sinsheim area which is a good day's walk from
Sulzfeld, the home of the Zimmermans."
