Life Sketch
Melchior Zumbrunnen was the second son of Johann Zumbrunnen and Veronika Reppulin.
Little about this junior branch of the Zumbrunnen family is known, including birth dates, death dates, whether they owned land, or whether they had children. They are the possible origin of some of the other branches of the Zumbrunnen family.
Melchior may have lived for a time in Bellinzona, Italy, where his father was the landvogt from 1626-28.
