| Four Zieske and Zieski Families or groups are key to our Zieske Extended Family Research in Prussia project. Each of these is identified by the following known ancestral couples. Family 1 & 3 are now linked: Family 1. Michael Zieske born 1816 & Anna Christina Schulz; Family 2. Michael Zieski born about 1795 & Anna Maria Krenz; Family 3. Michael Zieske born 1846/47 & Wilhemenia Sonnenberg; and Family 4. Wilhelm Zieske born abt 1831 & Wilhelmina Burk A Zieske/Zieski/Ziske Extended Family Scenario. This proposes that the 4 Zieske families at the top of this page are, in fact, each part of one extended family. This is based on facts we know to date and supplemented with hunches yet to be verified. It is easy to see how Zieske of the same extended family could be separated in the USA. If this scenario is correct, generations separated those who came to USA from these older ancestors. Those known to have emigrated to the United States are Michael Zieske b. 1816 & Anna Christina Schulz; Michael Zieske born 1846 who marries Wilhemina Sonnenberg in the United States; Johann Zieske and his 3rd wife, Beata Luise Breitkreutz; Wilhelm Zieske who marries Wilhelmine Burk in the United States; and Anna Rosina Arnd and her 2nd husband, Wilhelm Matz, married in Ascherbude, Czarnikau, Posen, Prussia.
