He was denied residency in Floss at one point and may have moved to Nuremberg or possibly Nuenburg von Wald near where he had a glass works in the Murnthal valley (click here for the mirror factory article). He was living in Floss at the time of Soloman Thannhauser's courtship of hs daughter Charlotte. They had ten children:

He helped found the first synagogue there, and was a member of the City Council. Langerman Drive in the suburb of Kensington, which he founded in 1897, was named after him. He had no children of his own.

- Carolina Langermann (b: 7/6/1865 d: 6/26/1942) married Albert Thannhauser on 12/26/1887 in Nuremberg. Her descendants including Nava, live in Israel.
- Jakob Langermann (b:11/14/1866) went to South Africa, the family story was that he lost all his money in a card game and committed suicide (official version was a hunting accident). However his will (click here) shows substantial assets so likely a false tale. He never married and had no children,
- Isidor Langermann (b: 9/11/1868 d: 1911 On a ship out of Madras, India , possibly of appendicitis) The family story is that he was friendly with Madame Curie and had been looking for uranium? Probably he was the father of Fred Langerman, born in South Africa, and adopted by Isador's brother Max. He was also apparently the father of a daughter Augusta who was disowned by her family after his death for marrying a Catholic. DNA testing has found her grandchildren!
