Biography

Robert (Bob) Zimmerman was born 1 December 1949 in Gold Beach, Oregon.

His family moved to Marietta, Georgia for a few years before moving to Washington State when Bob was four years old.

Bob grew up in a neighborhood in Bellevue, Washington before moving to Issaquah, Washington where he graduated from Issaquah High School in 1968. He then attended the University of Washington and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Fisheries in 1972.

He married Valorie Anne Cowan in 1972 and lived in Seattle before moving to Kent, Washington in 1976.

Bob and Valorie had three children, whom they home-schooled for several years.

We've missed you. Your Ancestors have missed you. Are you still interested in participating on WikiTree? Please let me know what your intentions are. We would love to see you active again but understand if you are no longer interested.

Let me explain what will happen if you no longer wish to continue on WikiTree, all of your living profiles will be deleted for privacy reasons, all profiles meeting the 150/200 year rule will be opened up and orphaned so others may adopt them and your personal profile will be deleted. I understand how tough that will be after all the work you have put into building profiles. Is there someone you can transfer your profiles to? If yes, please contact me and I will send you information on how to do that.

Thank you for all of your past contributions and hopefully future contributions.

This will then propagate a list of your inline sources with corresponding numbers at the foot of the profile.

Thank you

Hello,

When you post DNA test information on a WikiTree profile, WikiTree needs to be able to see the profile Family Tree Tab (top of WikiTree Profile) to make DNA connections down the ancestral lines.

I would like to recommend that you change the privacy level on this profile and all of the ancestors to be at a level that allows everyone to see the Family Tree tab. For further information on the available Privacy levels needed to facilitate this, please see:[1]".

Thank you, Meghan
