The sons of Carl Heinrich Junghans

I stumbled upon a comment left by Peggy Bailey (thank you Peggy) that confirmed a photo of Emil Yunghans.

Now that I have a photo of all the Junghans brothers that left Germany in the 1800's and came to America as either a Junghans or Yunghans, here they are:

Emil Yunghans

Emil Yunghans, the eldest son of Christliebe Kuehn and Carl Heinrich Junghans.

Otto Heinrich Junghans, Paul Richard Junghans & Carl F Yunghans

Otto Heinrich was the third child, Paul Richard was the fourth (and last) child and Carl Frederick was the second child born to Christliebe Kuehn and Carl Heinrich Junghans.

The two eldest brothers, Emil Heinrich and Carl Frederick changed their last name to Yunghans from Junghans sometime after they left Germany for America.    The two younger brothers, Otto Heinrich and Paul Richard opted to keep the "J".

Unfortunately I have yet to find a photo of the Yunghans/Junghans brothers together or of their parents.

1920 US Census - Julius Yunghans

While searching for the 1940 US Census, I was able to track down a few previous census records I had been missing.     Below is the 1920 US Census for Julius Yunghans.

Julius (line 92, second family from the the bottom) was living with wife Minnie (Kirsch) and their two children, Marie and Arthur in the city of Vincennes, Knox county, Indiana.

Julius was employed as a cigar maker, most likely working for his father, Emil Yunghans at the Yunghans Cigar factory.    The occupation of daughter Marie is listed as "sales woman" at a five and dime store.

Julius was the eldest son of Julia (Kolb) and Emil Heinrich Junghans/Yunghans and the grandson of Christliebe (Kuehn) and Carl Heinrich Junghans.

Yunghans cigars

Last year I posted about the cigar company owned by Emil Yunghans, the eldest brother of my great grandfather, Paul Richard Junghans.

Here are some photos of the cigar boxes, provided by Daniel Yunghans, the great great grandson of Emil.

Norman Yunghans, the grandson of Emil later used the box to store nuts and bolts.

Emil Yunghans family tree

Now that I've posted my inventory of photos and documents of the Junghans (Yunghans) families, I'm going to update the family tree spreadsheet.

The eldest son of Christliebe (Kuehn) and Carl Heinrich Junghans was Emil Junghans.   Emil had changed the spelling of his last name from Junghans to Yunghans and settled in Vincennes, Indiana.   The spreadsheet of his branch of the family tree can be found here.

1920 US Census - Emil Yunghans

In 1920, elder brother Emil Yunghans was living in Vincennes, Indiana, along with wife Julia and 3 of their 10 children, John Frederick, Frank and Hulda.

Emil and son Frank manufacturered cigars and  John was a policeman.

1910 US Federal Census - Emil Junghans

The 1910 US Federal Census was the first that I've been able to locate the records for all 4 of the Junghans' brothers: Emil, Carl, Otto and Paul.

In 1910 Emil and wife Julia lived with 7 of their 10 surviving children: Alvin, Ernest, Elizabeth, Frederick, Albert, Frank and Hulda.



Emil Yunghans (Junghans) and family were living in Vincennes, Indiana during the 1910 Census.
