Notes:

Teilhaber & Co, New York

Bernhard as well as his brother Emil lived with their families on Long Island in College Point, a small simple suburb of New york. They were partners in the firm "Greeff & Co." which their fathers started in 1857. The gardens of ther homes, near to the Sound were close together and separated only by the garden of Anton Rosingh.
He was a brother-in-law of both brothers Greeff, Emil's first marriage was to Emilie Rosingh. Being neighbours gave rise to a special bond between the families. The atmosphere in both houses was essentrially German, and until the world war only German was spoken at home. Both families always had German governesses. It was a real little German colony in College point. The family Adolf Erbsloh, who came from Barmen was very close to the Greeffs.
In the very musical family of Bernhard Greeff music was made every evening. The father played piano and the organ, the mother sang in a beautiful soft alto. In this way the children (born in America) learned all the wonderful German folk songs and childrens songs.
This was recreation for the men that had a streneuous working life, facing a long arduous journey early in the morning to the office in the city and back to their suburb in the evening.
Bernhard and his wife had an excedingly happy marriage and lived only for themselves and their children, to whom they were a shining example. Bernhards great goodness is shown by the fact that for about 30 years he played the organ in church every sunday, because the congregation was too poor to afford the services of an organist.

Bernhard married Helene Pauline ROSINGH on 19 Jun 1873 in Norden, Ostfriesland, Germany. Helene (daughter of Gerhard ROSINGH and Gebhardine VON GLAN) was born on 13 Sep 1845 in Norden; died on 20 Jul 1919 in New York, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Edward married Sarah Georgina BRIKBECK. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Greeff Brecht & Co, Barmen

in the Huckenbach english translation by Greeff and Viljoen Johann Peter Died in Elberfield
The firm "Ehrenberg & Leuschner" was aquired by Joh. Peter Greeff (Bornefeld) in 1829 and promptly renamed "J.P. Greeff & G.W. Sohn".Apparently it was the son Joh. Peter Greeff (Bredt) who brought tribute to his father in this way. He was a member of the Concordia Society in Barmen in 1824 and must accordingly already have lived in Barmen at the time.

According to notes made by Joh. Peter in Dusseldorf the firm also produced other articles which were in demand in the market, e.g. snuff boxes, brooches, cuff links, tie pins, also brooches carved from horn and similar material.
The main thrust thoughout was the metal button manufacture which had gradually conquered the whole German market and was more and more supplanting the French articles in foreign markets.
The largest manufacturing centres were Barmen and Ludenscheid.

Joh married Sophie Emilie BREDT on 24 Nov 1827. Sophie (daughter of Joh. Peter BREDT and Charlotte SIEBEL) was born on 21 May 1806; died on 22 Mar 1863. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
