Bronner's in Cincinnati

cwilkers1 — 3 Apr 2002 6:56:03 GMT

I am doing genealogy on my maternal grandmother's side of the family. Her name is Clara Bronner Flamm, and she was one of 12 brothers and sisters. Her father's name was George "Dick" Bronner and her mother's name was Wilhelmina Bamberger Bronner. I am searching for the Bronner name and whether or not Dick had other brothers and sisters beside the one sister that I know of whose name was Theresa. The Bronner's were from Alsace Lorraine, France. What I'm not sure of is if "Bronner" was their true last name or if it changed when they arrived in the states. Story has it that Dick's father felt that their name was too french sounding for all the german's that he was around so made their name harder sounding. I am also trying to find out what Dick's father and mother's name were.

If anyone knows anything more about George "Dick" Bronner, I would greatly appreciate it.

Pete,

Just wanted to let you know that I found out info. from the LDS website that Coffee Joe's family was from Alsace-Lorraine, France and that he was actually born there in 1866, don't know how accurate that is but I did find some Bronners that were living there in area of Neunhoffen in 1600's on up. Thought this to be very interesting. I also wanted to let you know I found Caroline Fenneman, Coffee Joe's wife on census in Hamilton Co. Her father was Henry Fenneman and her mother was Julia Fenneman and they came from Prussia. Thought you would like to know this. Hope all is well with you.

Joseph Bronner

ConnieReinhold — 27 Feb 2003 8:49:48 GMT

Pete,

Just wanted to let you know I got the death certificate on a Joseph Bronner who died in 1913 and was born in Germany on Nov. 25, 1839. He died in Hamilton Co. and was buried in old St. Joseph's Cemetery. It lists his father as Ignatz Bronner and it has mother unknown. Does this sound like it could be our Joseph Bronner or not? It also say's that he was widowed so does not list his wife's name. Was hoping that this could possibly be Coffee Joe's father, but didnt you say his name might have been August too? Well, was hoping to get somewhere on this but don't know if this is anything or not.

Thanks,

Connie

Thank you.

Dan,Connie,Tara - More info

Pete Bronner — 10 Dec 2000 12:31:35 GMT

Finally talked with my sister Paula and got some more information.
She 'thinks' Coffee Joe Bronner's father's name was August. Coffee Joe was born in 1856 which casts suspician on the age of the photo (1840) which Dan and I have. Joe died in 1928 - age 62.
August Bronner's Family:
- Josaphine - married Weisbrod some offspring I knowof but there may be more Carol (Lictenberg) Irvin, Joanne.
- Teresa - married Baumgardener (?)
- Lorreta - married Wilp (?).
- Margaret - married Meyer (?)
- Leo - married McCaferty - no children. Dan this is Jack Schmitz aunt - his mothers sister. Since Leo had no children he is the end of the 'August Bronner' direct line.

Harry Bronner - three kids. None married.
- Harry, Margaret and Annie Marie. All deceased.
Charles Bronner - No info.
Dan sent a good history of Joe Bronner's family and I believe I sent a history of my family (William Bronner) and some history on Madeline's family. Some other info:
Madeline's first husband was Syvester Koenig and second husband was John Drexler. Madeline had two children by Koenig:
- Mary Nora (Norma Mae) - married Earl Bolender and had Earl and Tim.
- Katherine (Catie) married Ferdnand Rebholz and had Joe, Mike, Tom, Mary and Madelene.
Madeline had three children by Drexler:
- John - never married
- Jim - married Pat Farenbach.
- Lucille - married Jim Marshall.
Thats about all I got out of Paula with all the other talking going on.

Bronner Family of Wisconsin - late 1800s

Edward Sinclair Bruner — 3 Sep 1999 8:13:25 GMT

Hello fellow Bronner researchers. I need your help. I have been researching my Bruner ancestors and came across an interesting document. This week I obtained my gg-grandfather's Register of Marriage here in McLean Co, IL. The county clerks had trouble finding it because it was listed under Bronner. On the certificate it says Richard Bronner, was crossed out, and someone changed it to Bruner. His father's name was listed as Bronner and was not changed. Perhaps someone out there that has Bronner info could check for me. Here's what I have: Richard Bruner/Bronner (born: 1864) of Prairie Du Chien, WI (father: Melcher Bronner -- mother: Margaret Quinn). Richard married Mary Ann Nicklin of Derby Shire, England (in McLean Co, IL) on 17 July 1897. I am unable to obtain Richard's death certificate, due to a turn-of-the-century fire that wiped out most of Bloomington, IL's downtown and death records. Any help would be GREATLY apprecaited. Email: edbruner@ice.net ... web: http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/b/r/u/Edward-S-Bruner/
Thank you.
