I am not a researcher of this surname however I came across obituary announcements in an old newspaper and felt it might be of some use to someone out there who is researching this surname. I saw your post and felt you may find this info relevant to your families.
The name of the newspaper was "Anti Masonic Star of New Oxford, Pennsylvania" and was dated Saturday, August 14, 1830. The announcement is as follows:
"Died,
On the 29th ult. in the neighborhood of Abbottstown, Miss ELIZABETH ZIPLING in the 19th year of her age."
The county was Adams county which was formed in 1803.
