Various Zenner OccupationsZenner, Zentner, Zehner OccupationsA few Zentner's have been noted to be saratorii or textile workers from Germany or Prussia. Several female Zenner's are noted as listing their occupation as a tailor in the early Census records in the United States. Most of the early settlers in the US were farmers. There are a few Zenner's in the Northwest who remain farmers. I have not been able to ascertain what Wilhelm Zenter farmed in 1880 in St. Landry or Acadia Parish, Louisiana. The Parish of Acadia was formed from St. Landry six years after the land patent was issued to Wilhelm Zenter. I would need further mapping information in order to find the exact spot of his 155 acre homestead in Louisiana. Message board posts indicate that a few Zenter's were textile workers and so I'm left to wonder if Wilhelm was a part of this family business. It is further interesting to note that Zenter's from Germany traveled to Manitoba, Canada. Could they have then moved to Louisiana? What connections, if any can be made in Canada? &nbps; Other Zenner's worked as newspaper printers, card makers, and real estate salesman or insurance salesman. A few were servants, Kate Zenner 14 yo New York worked as a servant, apprentice bakers Louis Zehner New Orleans 15 yo apprentice baker, or laborers at odd jobs like 38 yo John Zenner of Texas. A handful were retired and elderly, John and Christina. Gathering from newspaper and book articles Zenner's were Doctors, theologians, writers, and chemists. There is also a Zenner who was an inventor and engineer. The oldest Zenner that I have found lived to be 104 years old. There are very few records of homestead petitions for the surname and its variants. I have found homestead petitions for a Katie Zenner 120 acres in Grant County, Washington State in 1913, Peter Zenner in Idaho and Wisconcin and an N. J. Zenner in Chippewa County, Wisconcin 1874. Also in Wisconcin a Michael Zenner in Taylor county 1892. Another William? Zenner owned property in Mt. Diabolo, California. The time frame between the Census Record of Katie Zenner 14yo and the homestead petition in Washington State in 1913 could be the same Katie Zenner.
