Eliza Jane Zolman was the wife of John Zolman who was born circa 1810/1811 to John & Catherine (nee Passy) Zolman. Eliza supposedly married him between 1850 and 1857. The actual number of children is unclear, as the "Ancestry.com" entry for John & Eliza Zolman has some major conflicts with the data and mixing two Eliza Zolman and their childrens names together. But here is a version which needs some clean up:

John & Eliza Zolman did have:
- Edgar Zolman (b. 1858)
- Charles W. Zolman (1859-1936)
- Elmer Ellsworth Zollman (1862-1936)

Need to confirm if Mary & Cynthia were the daughters of John & Eliza Jane Zolman:
- Mary E. Zolman (b. 1867)
- Cynthia Jane Zolman (b. 1868)

These three children were actually the daughters of Elzy S. & Eliza Z. Zolman of Bloomington, Illinois:
- Elizabeth A. Zolman (1866-1930)
- Jeannette C. "Jennie" Zolman (1868-1930)
- Carrie P. Zollman (1870-1946)

As for this child, yet to be confirmed which Zolmans were her parents:
- Emma J. Zolman (b. 1873)

Some serious research needs to be accomplished to straighten out the records of Eliza Jane Zolman.
1) According to Ancestry.com entry on Eliza Zolman (link at the bottom), she was born in 1822, which would make sense with only 11 or 12 year between John and her. The first born with John & Eliza Zolman that survived was Edgar Zolman in 1858 when she would have been 36 years old. The last child listed for this Eliza Zolman was listed as Emma Jane Zolman in 1870, when this Eliza (if born in 1822) would have been 48 years old.
2) On this same entry on Ancestry.com, it refers to (with an origianl document image) an 1860 census for Eliza Jane Condon at age 16 living with parents John & Rebecca Condon in Monroe Township in Perry County, Ohio. Age 16 in 1860 would make the birth year 1844. So Eliza Jane Condon could not have married John Zolman to have the first born in 1858, especially two years after Edgar's birth she is recorded as still living at home with her parents.
3) Numerous references on Eliza Jane Condon Zolman's Ancestry.com entry are refering to a Eliza Zolman living in Bloomington, Illinois. But in researching, this refers to a different Eliza Zolman, born in 1846 and buried in Bloomington, Illinois. See her Findagrave.com memorial entry with picture of the headstone at Eliza (nee Zientmire) Zolman. She was the wife of Elzy S. Zolman.
4) If you view this Eliza Z. Zolman's headstone where it is engraved "Mother" with the Elzy S. Zolman's headstone engrave with "Father", you can match up the headstone pictures of their three daughters engraved with "Daughter" on their Findagrave.com entries:
- Elizabeth A. Zolman born in 1866
- Jennie C. Zolman born in 1868
- Carrie P. Zolman born in 1870
ALL 3 DAUGHTERS BURIED IN THE SAME CEMETERY
5) For the supposed daughter Mary Zolman born circa 1867 after Elizabeth, her Ancestory.com has an 1880 census of Berlin Township showing living with grandparents "Jacob & Mary Zolman", which cannot be, as a Mary Zolman of John and Eliza Jane Zolman, her grandparents would have been John & Catherine (nee Passy) Zolman. So probably either the wrong Mary Zolman information posted or there was not a Mary Zolman, daughter of John & Eliza Jane Zolman. {Note: Art Reierson's Zollman/Zolman Familes book never mentions a daughter Mary Zolman to John & Eliza Jane Zolman. But he does mention the maiden name of this Eliza Jane as Condon. Which if the 1860 census is correct, was not the Eliza Condon born in 1844}
