The town of Bremen is at the southernmost point of a U.S. mid-Atlantic Ocean seaboard. Bremen is part of Antwerp Township, which was mostly settled by German immigrants, but it does have a minor British ancestry as well. Also, there are other demographics mixed in, but the county is predominately German.
As one travels northward up the coast from Bremen, the German infleuence declines. The British influence increases at approximately the same rate. Geneva County, the next county north, has about half German and half British. The southern part of the county (including Geneva Township) having a slightly larger German population and the northern part (including Asbury Township) having a slightly larger British population. North of that, Bainbridge County is the converse of Bremen: mostly British with a modest German population.
A drive from Bremen to Bainbridge county takes about an hour, if one drives uses the parkway, and about 20 to 30 minutes longer on state roads, depending on the time of year. Bainbridge township, in the heart of the county, is approximately 82 miles from Bremen.
