• Notes

  Teilhaber von "Greeff - Bredt & Comp" in Barmen. Zusammen mit seinem bruder Ernst diente er einjahrig bei der Infanterie in Koln. J V Bredt, pagina 64. Shortly after his marriage he established his own firm "Greeff-Bredt& Comp." In Barmen.Presumably with the help of his very affuent father-in-law. This was a factory producing cloth covered buttons, something completely new at the time. Later a weaving mill was added to produce the materials for the buttons. Other materials were also made there, especially "Lasting". The offices and despatch rooms were in the back building on 7 Reformed Church street, the weaving mill was in Gas street. He and his brother Ernst served on year in the infantry in Koln. The elsdest son Joh Peter was at most invovled in purchses and the first establisment of the firm.
