C. Frederick Brunner born abt 1817 is probably the great great Grandfather of my husband. He married Christine Nafsker (sp) b abt 1824. Children Samuel b abt 1852, Peter Brunner b abt 1856, Frederick b abt 1858, Albert Brunner b Sept 13, 1861 b in ohio or Germania d 1926 in Cleveland Ohio, Godfrey Brunner b 1864, Elizabeth, b 1866, christine b Abt 1869, Christian b abt 1849 Family legend is that he was from Switzerland. Any information on when he emigrated to USA, town where he was from, and any living relatives appreciated. Most of our information has come from Census and family data from the Albert Brunner family. Thank you Marti Wenk Hause
