HISTORY OF GIFT, KERN, ROYER FAMILIES: Catherine Kern Ziegler was born near Middleburg, Pa., Oct. 12, 1814.
Her youth was passed on a farm and as was the custom in those early days, she was one of the "hands" to work in the fields whenever occa-
sion required. She was kind-hearted and credulous to a fault. She was a devoted member of the Reformed church at Rebersburg and endeavored to rear her children in the same faith. She died May 21, 1884, aged 69 years, 7 months and 9 days. She and her husband, Isaac, are buried at Rebersburg, Pa.
