Georg Huber, my 1st cousin three times removed, was born in Alzey, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany, on March 20, 1880. His father,
Georg Huber (1838-1926), was the brother of
Phillip Huber (1847-1901) - my great-great-Grandfather. Their parents were

Eva Katherina Fauth (1807-1875), my 3rd-great-grandparents. The Hubers lived in Florsheim, Hessen, Germany.
Phillip Huber left Germany and came to America about 1868, settled in Bowling Green, Kentucky and married
Barbara Brunett (1852-1896). Phillip worked as a miller and together they had seven children. After Barbara's death, Phillip and their four surviving children moved to Bessemer, Alabama. Phillip's daughter
