 And at this [website] regarding “breeds of cattle” I found the following relating to Zoller.

[After the last importation by Barton, the United States government prohibited any further importations of cattle from Switzerland because of the spread of foot-and-mouth disease in Europe. In 1931 imports were again allowed and several animals entered within the year. A.E. Bower and A. Oliver Bower of Bushton, Illinois, brought in the bull, Imported Mars 25100, and the female, Burgis Drosel 36800, both bred in Switzerland. Broadview's Mexico 25700, bred in Mexico, was imported by Mrs. Clara J. Cleaveland of Moline, Ilinois, and Ralph Mooney of Ft. Dodge, Iowa. J. Frank Zoller of Schenectady, New York, brought in imported Jack of Walhalla 25300, bred in Switzerland, and Blankus of Walhalla 25301, bred in Mexico.]

And from Time Magazine’s archives here:

Monday, Sep. 19, 1932

Died. J. Frank Zoller, 54, General Electric Co.’s tax attorney, foremost U. S. breeder of Brown Swiss cattle; from injuries inflicted by a prize bull; at his Walhalla Farm outside Schenectady, N. Y.

Internet research tells me that Walhalla Farm was in Rexford, NY.
