Biography

Johannes George Zittel was born on February 11, 1816.[1] He was the son of Johannes Zittel and Margareth Motz.[1]

He married Margaretha Wonner/Wanner on September 10, 1842 in Detroit, Michigan.[2]

He died on March 29, 1893 and is buried in Elmwood Cemetery, Detroit (Wayne County), Michigan.[3]

Notes

The birth date, 12 February 1816, on the FindAGrave memorial is from the gravestone, which looks like it was placed well after death.[3] It conflicts with his French parish record which gives his birthdate as February 11, 1816.[1]
