    • George Anthony Berlinghof (born Georg Anton Berlinghof; July 24, 1860 – May 30, 1944) was a German-born architect who designed a number of important buildings in Lincoln and other cities in Nebraska. Some of his surviving works are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
    Berlinghof was born in Free City of Frankfurt, to Georg Heinrich Berlinghof and Katharina Kretschmann Berlinghof. He immigrated to the United States in 1881. As of 1898 he was working as an architect in Beatrice, Nebraska, and as of 1906 he was established in Lincoln, where he remained active as an architect until 1930. Between 1911 and 1918, he partnered with Ellery L. Davis in the firm of Berlinghof and Davis. According to the Nebraska Historical Society, the firm designed "many important structures" in the city, attaining "a position of prominence" there. George Berlinghof and Ellery Davis also designed many schools and courthouses throughout Nebraska. Their firm survives as the Davis Design firm.
    Berlinghof died in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1944, aged 83. The Nebraska Historical Society holds a collection of his architectural drawings, including both line drawings and watercolor renderings.
