Nininger/Neininger Family

FAMILY BACKGROUND

Mathias Nininger, the earliest discovered ancestor in the U.S. of this line, was born 24 Feb 1801 in Baden, Germany and died 13 May 1877 in Fairfield County, Ohio. He lived in Ohio as early as 1833, when his first child, John, was born.

Mathias Nininger married Emaline Kasper. She was born in Baden, Germany about 1803. She died 5 Mar 1883 in Fairfield County, Ohio. There is some confusion about her first name. She is listed in the 1850 and 1860 U.S. Census as "Emaline". In the 1870 U.S. Census, she was listed as " Effa" and in the 1880 U.S. Census, her name was listed as " Aphresene".

The Nininger name has also been spelled NEININGER and NEINENGER. In 1850, a Meinrad Neininger was listed in the U.S. Census for Fairfield County, Ohio. He was born in 1810 also in Baden, Germany. Many of his children spelled their name NININGER. One could draw the conclusion that Mathias and Meinrad were related, possibly brothers.

Mathias and Emaline Nininger had 7 children in Fairfield County Ohio. They were:
