I am new to the list. I am researching two of my greatgreatUncles, brothers, who emigrated from the village of Ingersheim Wuerttemberg Germany to Berea/Cleveland Ohio in 1854 and 1865. This is what I know about them: Johann Georg BULLINGER was born in 1828 and emigrated in 1854. I don't know when he was married but his wife name was Catherine, surname unknown. She was born in 1843 IN Baden Germany. They had four children, Otto A. born 1863, Helene born 1867, Rosa born 1871 and Emma born 1877. Otto's wife was named Rose, surname unknown and they had a son Harry who was born in 1906. Emma was married to a Ernst Weber who was born in Germany in 1869, location unknown. The 1910 and 1920 census reports show that her mother, a widow at that time, was living with Emma and Ernst. The 1900 Cleveland City directory show that they were living at 22 Height. Georg Frederich BULLINGER at the age of 29 emigrated in 1865. A year later on April 15, 1866 in Cuyahoga county he married Rosina STRIGER who was just 16 years of age. From my research of census reports from 1870, 1880 and 1900 they had no children. I would be interesting in knowing if anyone on this list is also researching this surname. Ernie Kuemmerer

This is from my book section on Cleveland suburbs. Any additions, corrections? I've given you credit for the info in immigration date and the town of birth. Danke sch�n ---Bob Ward German Brewers In the 1880s, a German immigrant named Georg Neubrand, who as a result of his highly successful shoe making business and investments was known as one of the richest men in the area, bought the Davis Brewery on River Street (the present Rocky River Drive), in Middleburg, just outside Berea Village. After his death in 1892, the business was sold to an immigrant from Ingersheim, W�rttemberg, stone mason and saloon keeper Friedrich Bullinger, who, according to his great-grand nephew E. Kuemmerer, immmigrated to America in 1865 and married the following year in Cleveland. Neubrand�s residence, still standing at 93 East Bridge Street, is presently occupied by Ohio�s Boys Town Bullinger, who sold the brewery a few months after buying it, ran into trouble with the local townspeople because of the rowdiness at his saloon and his violation of Sunday closing ordinances and liquor license requirements. When saloons were outlawed by the township, he continued his business as a pool room and lunch counter. Bullinger built the Bullinger Building on Factory Street (Rocky River Drive) in the Berea Triangle. On top of the building stood two lions that local residents nicknamed Fred and Rosie after Bullinger and his wife (nee Rosina Steiger). The Bullinger residence, at 148 Front Street, near the corner of Grand, is also still standing. It originally had likenesses of Bullinger and his wife on its two short posts at the base of its steps. The lions are now on the premises of the Berea Historical Society.
