Hermann C. LANGE / Herrmann Carl LANGE war Sohn des Tischlers Ferdinand LANGE und dessen Ehefrau Dorothea LANGE, geb. SCHULZ/SCHULTZ.
Er wurde am 11. Januar 1851 in Exin, Kreis Schubin [heute Kcynia, Polen] geboren und am 17. Januar 1851 in der dortigen Evangelischen Kirche getauft. Er erlernte wie der Vater den Beruf des Tischlers und wird später Möbeltischler.
Hermann kam erstmals im Jahre 1870 in die USA, als er den 7-jährigen Rudolf GROSSMANN, Sohn seiner älteren Schwester Marie Elisabeth GROSSMANN, geb. LANGE, begleitete. Von Hamburg kommend, trafen beide am 6. Juli 1870 an Bord des HAPAG Dampfers "Holsatia" in New York ein. Marie Elisabeth, ihr Ehemann und deren jüngere Tochter Maria Wilhelmina waren bereits 1867 bzw. 1869 ausgewandert und lebten in Manhattan. Hermann wohnte auch noch im nächsten Jahr im Haushalt seines Schwagers, wo er in der Volkszählungsliste von 1870 aufgeführt ist (2. Zählung für New York City).
1876 und 1877 findet man ihn in Springfield, Massachusetts, wo er als Möbeltischler für Robert BAHL, No.10 Sanford St. arbeitet und in No.19 State St. wohnt (1877 ist sein jüngerer Bruder Franz Theodor zugezogen und unter der gleichen Adresse gemeldet).
Wahrscheinlich nur kurzfristig hielt er sich 1877 in New York auf. Dort erhält er am 3. Juli 1877 vor dem Superior Court, New York City, die amerikanische Staatsbürgerschaft.
Kurz darauf muss er nach Deutschland zurückgekehrt sein. Mit 27 Jahren heiratet er am 14. August 1878 in Exin die 26-jährige Bertha Amalie ZIMMERMANN. Zwischen 1879 und 1887 werden dort ihre vier Kinder geboren: 1879 Theodor Ferdinand, 1882 Otto Carl, 1884 Herrmann Bruno (+ 1885 in Exin/Kcynia) und 1887 Bruno Paul (+ 1887 in Manhattan).
Zusammen mit Ehefrau Bertha und den drei Söhnen Theodor Ferdinand, Otto Carl und Bruno Paul LANGE wandert er 1887 endgültig in die USA aus. Am 6. Mai 1887 trifft die Familie an Bord des "Norddeutschen Lloyd" (NDL) Dampfers "Ems" von Bremen aus in New York (Castle Garden) ein. In der Passagier- liste ist fälschlicherweise als Beruf "tailor" (Schneider) angegeben.
Die nächsten Monate bleibt die Familie wohl vorerst in New York. Doch hier trifft sie ein neuer Schicksalsschlag. Nachdem 2 Jahre zuvor in Exin bereits ihr Sohn Herrmann Bruno verstorben war, müssen sie nun zweieinhalb Monate nach ihrer Ankunft den Tod des jüngsten Sohnes Bruno Paul in Manhattan beklagen.
In New York finden sie jedoch auch Rückhalt, denn hier trafen sie auf die anderen Geschwister, die bereits früher in die USA ausgewandert waren:
- Marie Elisabeth GROSSMANN, geb. LANGE (1869)
(geb. 9. Nov. 1843 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 22. Jun. 1910 in Manhattan, NY)
[1.Ehe: 3. Nov. 1862 in Exin/Kcynia mit Gottfried August GROSSMANN (ca.1831-1893) /
2.Ehe: 31. Dez. 1895 in Manhattan, NY mit Adam Anton PERLOWSKI (1838-1932)],
- Carl Ernst LANGE (1871)
(geb. 16. Apr. 1849 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 10. Mai 1913 in Manhattan, NY)
- Auguste Ottilie HANSCHE, geb. LANGE (1872)
(geb. 30. Aug. 1853 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 26. Jul. 1918 Morristown, NJ), and
- Franz Theodor LANGE (1872)
(geb. 22. Feb. 1858 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 18. Nov. 1918 in Springfield, MA)
Die Familie lässt sich anschließend in Springfield, Massachusetts, nieder, wo seit etwa 10 Jahren Herrmanns jüngerer Bruder F. Theodor LANGE lebte.
Ein Jahr danach zog Berthas Mutter Pauline ZIMMERMANN, geb. CAROW zu ihnen. Sie hatte Deutschland nach dem Tod des Ehemannes August ZIMMERMANN (+ vor 1878) verlassen.
Zu Beginn der 90er Jahre ist Hermann bei einer Firma in 357 Main Street (Third National Bank Block) beschäftigt. 1895/96 tritt er in die Firma seines Bruders ein ("Theodor Lange & Co.") und die beiden betreiben die "Opera House Dining Rooms", 3 Pynchon Street. Als F. Theodor Eigentümer des "Highland Hotels" wird, führen Hermann und sein Sohn Otto das Restaurant in eigener Regie weiter.
Ebenso wie sein Bruder war auch Hermann aktives Mitglied des "D.O.H. Germania Lodge No. 380" (Deutscher Orden der Harugari / German Order of the Harugari) in Springfield. 1891 wird er "O.B.", 1892 dann "Executive Bard" und im darauf- folgenden Jahr "D.D.G.B" (= District Deputy Grand Bard).
Nach der Jahrhundertwende zieht die Familie in das nahgelegene Westfield, MA. Zwischen 1901 und 1912 sind Hermann and Otto LANGE Eigentümer des "Park Square Hotels" in Westfield. Das Hotel war am 24. Februar 1899 bei einem Brand stark beschädigt und anschließend wiederaufgebaut worden (ein weiterer Umbau erfolgte 1914; nach einem erneuten Feuer im Jahre 1942 wurde es jedoch abgerissen und besteht heute nicht mehr).
Nach dem 1. Weltkrieg zogen die LANGEs zurück nach Springfield (95 Main Street), wo Hermann am 31. Mai 1932 verstirbt.
------------------------------------------------------------
Hermann C. (= Carl) LANGE was the son of Ferdinand LANGE, a joiner, and his wife Dorothea (SCHULZ/SCHULTZ) LANGE.
On January 11, 1851, he was born in Exin, Kreis Schubin, Province of Posen, Germany [today Kcynia, Poland] and baptized on January 17 at the Protestant Church there. He later followed in his father's footsteps, as he also became a joiner/cabinet maker by trade.
Hermann first came to the U.S. in 1870, when he accompanied his older sister Marie Elisabeth (LANGE) GROSSMANN's 7-year-old son Rudolph GROSSMANN. They both arrived in New York on board the HAPAG steamship "Holsatia" from Hamburg on July 6, 1870. Marie Elisabeth, her husband and their younger daughter Maria Wilhelmina had immigrated in 1867 and 1869 respectively and had been living in Manhattan. Hermann lived with the family of his brother-in-law for at least the following year as he is listed in the 1870 US Census (2nd enumeration for New York City).
In 1876 and 1877 he can already be found in Springfield, MA, working as a cabinet maker for Robert BAHL, No.10 Sanford St. and living at No.19 State St. (in 1877 his younger brother Franz Theodor joined him under the same address).
In 1877, he probably stayed in New York, as he was naturalized before the Superior Court, New York County, on July 3, 1877.
Shortly afterwards he must have returned to Germany. At age 27, he got married to Bertha Amalie ZIMMERMANN - who was 26 - in Exin on August 14, 1878. Between 1879 and 1887 his four children were born there: Theodor Ferdinand in 1879, Otto Carl in 1882, Herrmann Bruno in 1884 (d. 1885 in Exin/Kcynia) and Bruno Paul in 1887 (d. 1887 in Manhattan).
He finally emigrated to the USA in 1887 together with his wife Bertha and his three sons Theodor Ferdinand, Otto Carl and Bruno Paul LANGE. They arrived in New York (Castle Garden) on May 6, 1887 on board the "Norddeutsche Lloyd" (NDL) steamship "Ems" from Bremen. The passenger manifest incorrectly lists him as being a "tailor".
The next few months the family obviously stayed in New York. But only two and a half months after their arrival they were hard hit by the death of their youngest son Bruno Paul who passed away in Manhattan at the age of 7 months. Two years earlier their son Herrmann Bruno had died in Exin.
Under those circumstances it was good to be finally re-united with other family members who had come to the USA earlier:
- Marie Elisabeth (LANGE) GROSSMANN (in 1869)
(born Nov. 9, 1843 in Exin/Kcynia - died Jun. 22, 1910 in Manhattan, NY),
[1st marriage: Nov.3, 1862 in Exin/Kcynia to Gottfried August GROSSMANN (b. abt. 1831 / d. 1893) /
2nd marriage: Dec.31, 1895 in Manhattan, NY to Adam Anton PERLOWSKI (b. 1838 / d. 1932)],
- Carl Ernst LANGE (in 1871)
(born Apr. 16, 1849 in Exin/Kcynia - died May 10, 1913 in Manhattan, NY)
- Auguste Ottilie (LANGE) HANSCHE (in 1872)
(born Aug. 30, 1853 in Exin/Kcynia - died Jul. 26, 1918 in Morristown, NJ), and
- Franz Theodor LANGE (in 1872)
(born Feb. 22, 1858 in Exin/Kcynia - died Nov. 18, 1918 in Springfield, MA)
Later on, the family made their home in Springfield, MA, where his younger brother F. Theodor LANGE had already been living for the past 10 years or so.
They were joined by Bertha's mother Pauline (CAROW) ZIMMERMANN a year later, who had left Germany after the death of her husband August ZIMMERMANN.
In the early 1890s Hermann is employed by a company in 357 Main Street (Third National Bank Block). In 1895/96 he joins his brother's company "Theodor Lange & Co." and the two operate the "Opera House Dining Rooms" in 3 Pynchon Street. When F. Theodor becomes the proprietor of "The Highland Hotel", Hermann and his son Otto run the restaurant on their own.
Just like his brother, Hermann was an active member of the "D.O.H. Germania Lodge No. 380" (Deutscher Orden der Harugari / German Order of the Harugari) in Springfield. In 1891 he was their "O.B.", becoming "Executive Bard" in 1892 and "D.D.G.B" (= District Deputy Grand Bard) the following year.
After the turn of the century, the family moves to nearby Westfield, MA, and between 1901 and 1912, Hermann and Otto LANGE become the proprietors of Westfield's "Park Square Hotel". The hotel had suffered much damage in a first fire on February 24, 1899 and had been refurbished (it saw a further renovation in 1914, but was demolished after another fire in 1942 and doesn't exist anymore).
After World War I, the LANGEs moved back to Springfield (95 Main Street), where Hermann died on May 31, 1932.

(geb. 30. Aug. 1853 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 26. Jul. 1918 Morristown, NJ), and
- Franz Theodor LANGE (1872)
(geb. 22. Feb. 1858 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 18. Nov. 1918 in Springfield, MA)
Die Familie lässt sich anschließend in Springfield, Massachusetts, nieder, wo seit etwa 10 Jahren Herrmanns jüngerer Bruder F. Theodor LANGE lebte.
Ein Jahr danach zog Berthas Mutter Pauline ZIMMERMANN, geb. CAROW zu ihnen. Sie hatte Deutschland nach dem Tod des Ehemannes August ZIMMERMANN (+ vor 1878) verlassen.
Zu Beginn der 90er Jahre ist Hermann bei einer Firma in 357 Main Street (Third National Bank Block) beschäftigt. 1895/96 tritt er in die Firma seines Bruders ein ("Theodor Lange & Co.") und die beiden betreiben die "Opera House Dining Rooms", 3 Pynchon Street. Als F. Theodor Eigentümer des "Highland Hotels" wird, führen Hermann und sein Sohn Otto das Restaurant in eigener Regie weiter.
Ebenso wie sein Bruder war auch Hermann aktives Mitglied des "D.O.H. Germania Lodge No. 380" (Deutscher Orden der Harugari / German Order of the Harugari) in Springfield. 1891 wird er "O.B.", 1892 dann "Executive Bard" und im darauf- folgenden Jahr "D.D.G.B" (= District Deputy Grand Bard).
Nach der Jahrhundertwende zieht die Familie in das nahgelegene Westfield, MA. Zwischen 1901 und 1912 sind Hermann and Otto LANGE Eigentümer des "Park Square Hotels" in Westfield. Das Hotel war am 24. Februar 1899 bei einem Brand stark beschädigt und anschließend wiederaufgebaut worden (ein weiterer Umbau erfolgte 1914; nach einem erneuten Feuer im Jahre 1942 wurde es jedoch abgerissen und besteht heute nicht mehr).
Nach dem 1. Weltkrieg zogen die LANGEs zurück nach Springfield (95 Main Street), wo Hermann am 31. Mai 1932 verstirbt.
------------------------------------------------------------
Hermann C. (= Carl) LANGE was the son of Ferdinand LANGE, a joiner, and his wife Dorothea (SCHULZ/SCHULTZ) LANGE.
On January 11, 1851, he was born in Exin, Kreis Schubin, Province of Posen, Germany [today Kcynia, Poland] and baptized on January 17 at the Protestant Church there. He later followed in his father's footsteps, as he also became a joiner/cabinet maker by trade.
Hermann first came to the U.S. in 1870, when he accompanied his older sister Marie Elisabeth (LANGE) GROSSMANN's 7-year-old son Rudolph GROSSMANN. They both arrived in New York on board the HAPAG steamship "Holsatia" from Hamburg on July 6, 1870. Marie Elisabeth, her husband and their younger daughter Maria Wilhelmina had immigrated in 1867 and 1869 respectively and had been living in Manhattan. Hermann lived with the family of his brother-in-law for at least the following year as he is listed in the 1870 US Census (2nd enumeration for New York City).
In 1876 and 1877 he can already be found in Springfield, MA, working as a cabinet maker for Robert BAHL, No.10 Sanford St. and living at No.19 State St. (in 1877 his younger brother Franz Theodor joined him under the same address).
In 1877, he probably stayed in New York, as he was naturalized before the Superior Court, New York County, on July 3, 1877.
Shortly afterwards he must have returned to Germany. At age 27, he got married to Bertha Amalie ZIMMERMANN - who was 26 - in Exin on August 14, 1878. Between 1879 and 1887 his four children were born there: Theodor Ferdinand in 1879, Otto Carl in 1882, Herrmann Bruno in 1884 (d. 1885 in Exin/Kcynia) and Bruno Paul in 1887 (d. 1887 in Manhattan).
He finally emigrated to the USA in 1887 together with his wife Bertha and his three sons Theodor Ferdinand, Otto Carl and Bruno Paul LANGE. They arrived in New York (Castle Garden) on May 6, 1887 on board the "Norddeutsche Lloyd" (NDL) steamship "Ems" from Bremen. The passenger manifest incorrectly lists him as being a "tailor".
The next few months the family obviously stayed in New York. But only two and a half months after their arrival they were hard hit by the death of their youngest son Bruno Paul who passed away in Manhattan at the age of 7 months. Two years earlier their son Herrmann Bruno had died in Exin.
Under those circumstances it was good to be finally re-united with other family members who had come to the USA earlier:
- Marie Elisabeth (LANGE) GROSSMANN (in 1869)
(born Nov. 9, 1843 in Exin/Kcynia - died Jun. 22, 1910 in Manhattan, NY),
[1st marriage: Nov.3, 1862 in Exin/Kcynia to Gottfried August GROSSMANN (b. abt. 1831 / d. 1893) /
2nd marriage: Dec.31, 1895 in Manhattan, NY to Adam Anton PERLOWSKI (b. 1838 / d. 1932)],
- Carl Ernst LANGE (in 1871)
(born Apr. 16, 1849 in Exin/Kcynia - died May 10, 1913 in Manhattan, NY)
- Auguste Ottilie (LANGE) HANSCHE (in 1872)
(born Aug. 30, 1853 in Exin/Kcynia - died Jul. 26, 1918 in Morristown, NJ), and
- Franz Theodor LANGE (in 1872)
(born Feb. 22, 1858 in Exin/Kcynia - died Nov. 18, 1918 in Springfield, MA)
Later on, the family made their home in Springfield, MA, where his younger brother F. Theodor LANGE had already been living for the past 10 years or so.
They were joined by Bertha's mother Pauline (CAROW) ZIMMERMANN a year later, who had left Germany after the death of her husband August ZIMMERMANN.
In the early 1890s Hermann is employed by a company in 357 Main Street (Third National Bank Block). In 1895/96 he joins his brother's company "Theodor Lange & Co." and the two operate the "Opera House Dining Rooms" in 3 Pynchon Street. When F. Theodor becomes the proprietor of "The Highland Hotel", Hermann and his son Otto run the restaurant on their own.
Just like his brother, Hermann was an active member of the "D.O.H. Germania Lodge No. 380" (Deutscher Orden der Harugari / German Order of the Harugari) in Springfield. In 1891 he was their "O.B.", becoming "Executive Bard" in 1892 and "D.D.G.B" (= District Deputy Grand Bard) the following year.
After the turn of the century, the family moves to nearby Westfield, MA, and between 1901 and 1912, Hermann and Otto LANGE become the proprietors of Westfield's "Park Square Hotel". The hotel had suffered much damage in a first fire on February 24, 1899 and had been refurbished (it saw a further renovation in 1914, but was demolished after another fire in 1942 and doesn't exist anymore).
After World War I, the LANGEs moved back to Springfield (95 Main Street), where Hermann died on May 31, 1932.

Er wurde am 11. Januar 1851 in Exin, Kreis Schubin [heute Kcynia, Polen] geboren und am 17. Januar 1851 in der dortigen Evangelischen Kirche getauft. Er erlernte wie der Vater den Beruf des Tischlers und wird später Möbeltischler.
Hermann kam erstmals im Jahre 1870 in die USA, als er den 7-jährigen Rudolf GROSSMANN, Sohn seiner älteren Schwester Marie Elisabeth GROSSMANN, geb. LANGE, begleitete. Von Hamburg kommend, trafen beide am 6. Juli 1870 an Bord des HAPAG Dampfers "Holsatia" in New York ein. Marie Elisabeth, ihr Ehemann und deren jüngere Tochter Maria Wilhelmina waren bereits 1867 bzw. 1869 ausgewandert und lebten in Manhattan. Hermann wohnte auch noch im nächsten Jahr im Haushalt seines Schwagers, wo er in der Volkszählungsliste von 1870 aufgeführt ist (2. Zählung für New York City).
1876 und 1877 findet man ihn in Springfield, Massachusetts, wo er als Möbeltischler für Robert BAHL, No.10 Sanford St. arbeitet und in No.19 State St. wohnt (1877 ist sein jüngerer Bruder Franz Theodor zugezogen und unter der gleichen Adresse gemeldet).
Wahrscheinlich nur kurzfristig hielt er sich 1877 in New York auf. Dort erhält er am 3. Juli 1877 vor dem Superior Court, New York City, die amerikanische Staatsbürgerschaft.
Kurz darauf muss er nach Deutschland zurückgekehrt sein. Mit 27 Jahren heiratet er am 14. August 1878 in Exin die 26-jährige Bertha Amalie ZIMMERMANN. Zwischen 1879 und 1887 werden dort ihre vier Kinder geboren: 1879 Theodor Ferdinand, 1882 Otto Carl, 1884 Herrmann Bruno (+ 1885 in Exin/Kcynia) und 1887 Bruno Paul (+ 1887 in Manhattan).
Zusammen mit Ehefrau Bertha und den drei Söhnen Theodor Ferdinand, Otto Carl und Bruno Paul LANGE wandert er 1887 endgültig in die USA aus. Am 6. Mai 1887 trifft die Familie an Bord des "Norddeutschen Lloyd" (NDL) Dampfers "Ems" von Bremen aus in New York (Castle Garden) ein. In der Passagier- liste ist fälschlicherweise als Beruf "tailor" (Schneider) angegeben.
Die nächsten Monate bleibt die Familie wohl vorerst in New York. Doch hier trifft sie ein neuer Schicksalsschlag. Nachdem 2 Jahre zuvor in Exin bereits ihr Sohn Herrmann Bruno verstorben war, müssen sie nun zweieinhalb Monate nach ihrer Ankunft den Tod des jüngsten Sohnes Bruno Paul in Manhattan beklagen.
In New York finden sie jedoch auch Rückhalt, denn hier trafen sie auf die anderen Geschwister, die bereits früher in die USA ausgewandert waren:
- Marie Elisabeth GROSSMANN, geb. LANGE (1869)
(geb. 9. Nov. 1843 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 22. Jun. 1910 in Manhattan, NY)
[1.Ehe: 3. Nov. 1862 in Exin/Kcynia mit Gottfried August GROSSMANN (ca.1831-1893) /
2.Ehe: 31. Dez. 1895 in Manhattan, NY mit Adam Anton PERLOWSKI (1838-1932)],
- Carl Ernst LANGE (1871)
(geb. 16. Apr. 1849 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 10. Mai 1913 in Manhattan, NY)
- Auguste Ottilie HANSCHE, geb. LANGE (1872)
(geb. 30. Aug. 1853 in Exin/Kcynia - gest. 26. Jul. 1918 Morristown, NJ), and
