Hunts Corners
Since 1847, Hunts Corners has been home to members of
the Heymann family who first emigrated to the United States in that same year. The church at Hunts Corners is located at 4552 State Route 547 outside of Bellevue, Ohio in Huron County.
This picturesque location holds a special place in the hearts of the descendants of those first Heymanns who came to the U.S. for a better life. Today, family members return throughout the year to visit the church and view the family pictures and mementos included there. They walk down to the cemetery where generations of family members were laid to rest. The first Sunday of every August, they gather at the Matthew Heyman Memorial Friendship Hall for the annual meeting and reunion.
Heymanns, Heimanns, Heymans, Heimans, and Hymans return to where our family's American story began. They stay at the Heymann Guest House, peruse the names of the memorial brick sidewalk, and reminisce about past reunions, trips back to Kaltenholzhausen, Germany, and loved ones
who are no longer here.
Hunts Corners is a rich link to our past. If you're in the area, plan to visit. You'll be glad you did!
