Johann Christoph Zimmerman^1753,1754 was born on 16 March 1691/2 in Sulzfeld, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.^1754,1755 He died.^1754,1756 John Blankenbaker, "The Mount Pony Settlement", Beyond Germanna, Volume 1 No. 5, September 1989, p 48:
Not all of the 1717 Colonists and the other early but slightly later arrivals moved to the Robinson River area. A few of them settled on or near Mount Pony in present day Culpeper Co., VA. Their motivation in choosing this area is unknown.
Mount Pony hardley deserves to be called a Mount as its elevation is only 791 feed, about 400 feet higher that the surrounding area, but its clean rise gives it visibility and a landmark status. The peak of Mt. Pony is about three miles to the southeast of downtown Culpeper.
The first known German settler in the area was Christopher Cimberman who received a patent 24 JUN 1726 for 400 acres on the east side of Potatoe Run. (see Nelel Marion Nugent, Cavaliers and Pioneers, v.3 (1695-1732), p. 310.) Potato Run is the watershed on the southern side of Mt. Pony and it drains in a southeasterly course to the Rapidan River. ...
Christopher Simmerman patented another 280 acres on 28 SEP 1728 on branches of Brookes Run adjacent to John Quarles, Col. Carter and James Pollard's line (Nugent:357). Brookes Run is parrallel to Potatoe Run and about a mile east. ...
Of his original 400 acres, Christopher Zimmerman, cooper, sold 200 acres to Frederick Cobler, planter for £ 40 currency on 07 APR 1729, witnessed by G. Home and an unreadable name. (see W.A. Crozier, Virginia County Records, Spotsylvania 1721-1800, p. 106.)
On 06 OCT 1730 Christopher Zimmerman sold the 280 acres above to William Johnson for £ 20. Witnessed were W. Russell, Andrew Wilson and Thomas Whiland. In this deed, but not in the 1729 deed, Christopher Zimmerman has a wife, Elizaeth (Crozier:115).
On 21 SEP 1737 Conorat Ambyon sold 445 acres located on Potato Run, for 5 shillings sterling, to Christopher Zimmerman. This was granted to Ambyon by patent of 01 MAY 1728(?) and was admitted to the court as a lease. (Orange Co. Deed Book 2, p. 100). The was acknowledged by Conrad Amberger.
On 23 JUL 1742 Barbara Amberger and Christopher Zimmerman were bound to make an inventory of the estate of Conrad Amberger (Orange Co. Will Book 1:229).

Many of the court cases involved an [Attachment]
Christopher HOME against Richard YARBROUGH
John ZIMMERMAN against John WILLIAMS
Anthony STROTHER against John GARHART etc. He died in 1776 at the age of 65 in VA. The twelve hundred and eighty-seventh note in a series on the Germanna Colonies

The eldest son of Christopher Zimmerman, the immigrant, was John who was born in 1711. In Virginia he married Ursula Blankenbaker, the sister of Zacharias Blankenbaker who was also born in Germany. Both John and Zacharias lived until Madison County was formed so they lived in Germany, Essex County, Spotsylvania County, Orange County, Culpeper County, and Madison County yet they moved only twice (John may have moved three times).

John died in 1796, the father of seven children. In giving the children here, I am following Margaret James Squires who was a reputable researcher and who spent some time on this family. The eldest child of John was John, Jr. who was born about 1737. The second child was Dorothy, b. ca 1742, who married Jacob Tanner. The third child, Elizabeth, has a similar estimate for her birth year and she married Joseph Holtzclaw after his first wife, a Thomas, died. About 1746, Christopher was born and he married Mary Tanner. The next child was Mary, born ca 1752 and she never married. Another girl, Margaret, has an uncertain marriage. She was born about 1755. Rosanna, born ca 1757, married Moses Samuel.

Dorothy Zimmerman had a hard life in that she lost her husband, Jacob, when she was about forty years old with six youngsters in the home. I believe she was also physically handicapped. Jacob had been drafted in 1781 and died while he was in the army, just after the victory at Yorktown. In 1794, Dorothy filed a petition with the House of Delegates of Virginia asking for a pension which was granted.

Two of the Zimmerman children, a brother and a sister, married two Tanner children, a sister and a brother, respectively. The Tanner and the Zimmerman families lived not far from each other, a couple of miles north of the German Lutheran Church.

Perhaps John Zimmerman outlived Ursula, his wife, by about ten years for the last year she appears at the church is 1787.

Rosina (Zimmerman) Samuel appears at church with the Samuel surname name starting in 1789 and extending through 1796. She appeared as Rosina Zimmerman in 1775. A Rosina Zimmerman appeared as late as 1787 which is probably her. In the civil records, women who had the name Rosina at church usually were called Rosanna.
