John Mehling Social Club, Brooklyn, New York 1896

DennisDoyle45 — 7 Mar 2008 4:12:21 GMT

I am looking for any information on the John Mehling Social Club which was in existence in Brooklyn, New York in 1896. My great grandfather, Frederich Hensch, was a member. I believe it was a German immigrant social organization but I am not sure. I am trying to trace my ggf's immigration and thought that this might help. Thank you.

My great-grandfather's obituary lists several German groups or associations. A search of the web hasn't turned up any info so I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on these terms.
Court Allemania No. 38

Badish Beneficial Association and Eiche Beneficial

If you've heard of these, please reply....
Thanks.

"Sons of Herman" Lodges

Is there such a thing as the "Sons of Herman" Lodges? In my GGrandfather, Herman Christen HAUBENSAK's obit it said that he held membership in the "A.O.U.W. and Sons of Herman lodges". What would it be? Where could I find out information?
GGrandfather died in 1908 in Fremont, Dodge County, Nebraska, USA.
Any help would be appreciated.
