Mr. Lincoln & Friends The Boys: John W. Bunn (1831-1920)

"John W. Bunn came to know Lincoln when the teenager moved from New Jersey to Springfield in 1847 to work in his brother Jacob’s store. The much older Jacob was a prominent Springfield citizen who had opened a grocery store at the corner of Adams and Fifth Streets on the central square of Springfield. In 1858, John became a full partner with his brother and the name of the firm was changed to “J. and J.W. Bunn Company.”1 The enterprising Jacob employed Abraham Lincoln as his lawyer. John would become a prominent Springfield banker and railroad financier". (More)

Was that Bunn coffee man related to the Bunn coffee machine people?

Probably same Family
Bunn started out in the city of Springfield, Illinois and still has its headquarters there. The company was founded by George Bunn in 1957 as the Bunn-O-Matic Corporation. It was Mr. Bunn who created the first commercial fluted coffee filter.

Thanks Meanderer I bet it's the same family. Those Bunn-o-matics were in every restaurant.

I didn't see Men in Black. Yikes! What a scene that is!
