Wilbur G. Zeigler
Wilbur Gleason Zeigler (1857 – 1935) was a lawyer and writer who is best known for founding the Marlovian theory of Shakespeare authorship in the preface and notes to his 1895 novel ''It Was Marlowe''. He also wrote on the history of Ohio, the culture North Carolina, and the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, of which he was a survivor.
==Early career==
Zeigler was born in Fremont, Ohio. His father was of German ancestry. His mother was a descendent of Thomas Fitch. Zeigler studied law in Cleveland, Ohio, and in 1881 was admitted to the bar. He joined in a partnership with R. P. Buckland and H. S. Buckland, but after a year left to develop an interest in literature.〔''The Bay of San Francisco'', Vol. 2, Pages 375-376, Lewis Publishing Co, 1892〕
Zeigler contributed historical material to the ''History of Sandusky County Ohio'' (1882). He also travelled through North Carolina with fellow lawyer Ben S. Grosscup to research their jointly written book ''The Heart of the Alleghanies; or, Western North Carolina''. It was published in 1883. According to journalist George Ellison, the book is a "neglected classic",
The co-authors wrote in a lively fashion about the Cherokees and their lore, the native mountaineers and their lore, bear hunting and trout fishing, famous hunters and renowned fishermen, farming and livestock, mountain scenery and customs, the coming of tourism, mining, the distinctive characteristics of Asheville and other mountain communities, and much more. It would be difficult to think of a topic they didn’t touch upon, often in passing but not infrequently in depth. The book is a neglected classic of Southern Appalachian literature.〔(George Ellison, Back Then, ''Smoky Mountain News'', 04/09/2008. )〕
In 1883 Zeigler settled in San Francisco, and returned to legal work, concentrating on civil law. Eventually he formed the partnership Galpin & Zeigler.〔
