On Sept. 16, 1877, he was married to Anna S. Martin, at New Holland, Pa.

Three years after their marriage Bro. Zimmerman and his family moved to the new prairie country northwest of Newton, Kans. Here he spent his life, a loved neighbor, an exemplary Christian, and a worthy citizen.

He was a charter member of the Pennsylvania Mennonite Church, near Zimmerdale, which he faithfully served for a number of years as trustee. His passing removes from our church and community one of the few remaining pioneers. Funeral services were conducted November 6. Bro. J. G. Hartzler preached the sermon from the text, "I am now ready." The brethren Paul Erb and Earl Buckwalter assisted. Interment was made in the adjoining cemetery.
