Name: George Kauffman

Birth/Established: December 26, 1865 Death/Dissolved: April 6, 1940

Biography:

George Kauffman was born in Manchester, Ohio and later moved to nearby Canton. Canton City Directories list him as a carpenter and later as an architect. He moved to Cleveland in 1897. His firm, the Kaufmann Architectural Company, was best known for ornate houses that bridged the Victorian era and Revival styles that were popular in the early 20th century. Concentrations of these houses are found in the Superior Park Subdivision, along Linwood Avenue in Cleveland, and on Cohassett Avenue in Lakewood. He worked with several developers including Clark and Benton, George Graham, and Bernard Schatzinger. Kauffman's later houses lacked the distinctiveness of his earlier homes. He died in Cleveland two weeks after an automobile accident in April 1940 and was buried in Forest Hill Cemetery in Canton.
