Military promotion to Albert S. Sloane by Governor of Ohio, Asa S. Bushnell, 1894 October 23
Scope and Content
The Zenner Collection contains letters and correspondence of Dr. Phillip Zenner from 1869-1941. This includes 253 letters written to Zenner, all of which are from family and friends. All of the letters concern family business, health matters, and personal interests. Several letters contain information on the Zenner family history and ancestry. Phillip Zenner appeared to have been interested in tracing the lineage of his family back to Germany to determine the relationship (if any) with the Silberman family. The Silbermans were a family who requested Zenner's financial assistance and sponsorship to help them leave Germany in 1941. The collection also contains several photographs of family members, newspaper clippings relevant to Zenner, and four military promotion certificates.
