Benno Bodenheimer was a Jewish Tailor, who ran a wholesale and retail menswear store in Heidelberg at Marktplatz 4. At the time of his death he was living at Bahnhofstrasse 33.

Benno was born in Waibstadt, Germany on March 21, 1845, and died in Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany at age 73 on August 20, 1918.
He is buried at the Jüdische Friedhöfe at Bergfriedhof Cemetery in Heidelberg.

Benno was married three times, first to Mathilda Gruenwald, second to Elsa (maiden name unknown), then lastly to Rosa (aka Bianca) Loeb.

Benno had 9 children in total, at least one with each of his three wifes:
Selma Uhlfelder, Siegmund Bodenheimer, Ludwig (Louis) Bodenheimer, and Bertha Loeb were born to his first wife, Mathilda;
Mina Lauchheimer, and a daughter who died very young, were born to Elsa; and
