The Zahnisers came from Germany in the mid-1700s and settled in western Pennsylvania. Valentine and his wife, Juliana, left Moersheim, Germany for health reasons, but unfortunately, Valentine did not survive the trip to the new world. Zahniser descendants fought in the Revolutionary War and in the Civil War... and many continue to live in western Pennsylvania today.
