NotesPastor Gustav Adolph Zimmermann, 1850-1903 (Find-a-Grave): "Born in Basel, Switzerland. In 1869 he came to America and entered the Melanchthon Seminary of the old Northwestern Synod, at which institution he shortly afterwards became an assistant teacher. After that he moved to Chicago and worked as an assistant preacher at the St Paul's church. After a short time studying at German Universities, and receiving his Doctorate at Berlin, he returned to America to serve at the Markus Parish church in Buffalo, then worked as a professor at the Elmhurst proseminary, and finally returned to Chicago in 1877. Here he founded the Deutsche Warte (German View-Point), functioning as its editor, and held various positions in the public school service, ultimately that of Superintendent for Modern Language teaching."
