George Brumder (May 24, 1839 – May 9, 1910) was a German-American newspaper publisher and businessman in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Born in Breuschwickersheim, Bas-Rhin, France.,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/dictionary/index.asp?action=view&term_id=1092&search_term=brumder )〕 Brumder emigrated to the United States, settling in Milwaukee, where he produced several publications that served the city's (and the state's) German-American community. == Background and marriage == He was the fifteenth of sixteen children born to Georg and Christina Brumder. In 1857, at the age of 18, Brumder emigrated to Wisconsin with his older sister, Anna Maria, to attend her wedding to a Lutheran minister, Gottlieb Reim. George's first employment was clearing land near Helenville, Wisconsin, though shortly after arriving in the United States, he bade his sister and new brother-in-law farewell and set off on foot on a 45-mile journey to Milwaukee. He became a member of a crew that laid Milwaukee's first street car tracks and later became the foreman of the crew—a fact he remained proud of throughout his life.〔Bruce, William George. ''History of Milwaukee, city and county, Volume 2.'' Chicago: The S. J. Clarke Publishing Company, 1922.〕 Brumder soon joined Grace Lutheran Church in Milwaukee where he met his future wife, Henriette Brandhorst, a Prussian immigrant who was born in 1841 and arrived in America in 1853. The two were married on July 16, 1864 and they invested what little money they had in a small bookstore George had opened a few months earlier at 306 W. Water Street.
