Our goal is to educate the public as to the vast importance that the Southern Indiana Brewery's founders and families had on not only the Evansville area but the country as a whole. The accomplishments of these families are varied and go far beyond what one would expect from them. Just a few of them are:
An Admiral of the complete Pacific fleet and land troops in the United States Navy.
A State Representative
Inventor of Portland Cement
The beginning of the Dodge truck
The development of refrigerator compressors and so on it goes. These are things that very few people know about these families.
Our goal also is to restore the Hartmetz home and grounds as close as possible to the way it was in 1876.
