Question: Which religious settlement lived near present-day Iowa City and owned an appliance company now owned by Whirlpool?
Context: The Amana Corporation is an American brand of household appliances.  It was founded in 1934 by George Foerstner as The Electrical Equipment Co. in Middle Amana, Iowa, to manufacture commercial walk-in coolers.  The business was later owned by the Amana Society and became known as Amana Refrigeration, Inc.  It is now owned by the Whirlpool Corporation. Fagor Electrodomésticos is a large domestic and commercial appliance manufacturer based in the Basque Country, Spain and run by the Mondragon Corporation.  Fagor is Spain's largest consumer appliance company and the fifth largest electrical appliance company in Europe, manufacturing a wide range of domestic appliances, including washing machines, refrigerators and ovens. The Amana Colony is seven villages on 26000 acres located in Iowa County in east-central Iowa, United States: Amana (or Main Amana), East Amana, High Amana, Middle Amana, South Amana, West Amana, and Homestead.  The villages were built and settled by German Pietists, who were persecuted in their homeland by the German state government and the Lutheran Church.  Calling themselves the Community of True Inspiration (German: "Die Gemeinde der wahren Inspiration" ), they first settled in New York near Buffalo in what is now the Town of West Seneca.  However, seeking more isolated surroundings, they moved to Iowa (near present-day Iowa City) in 1856.  They lived a communal life until 1932. Janusz Bardach (July 28, 1919 in Odessa – August 16, 2002 in Iowa City) was a gulag survivor, author, and noted plastic surgeon.  He was the younger brother of Polish legal scholar Juliusz Bardach.  Survivors include: his wife, Phyllis Harper- Bardach of Iowa City, Iowa; his daughter, Ewa Bardach and her husband Hani Elkadi of Iowa City; his granddaughter, Nina Elkadi of Iowa City.

Cameronian was a name given to a radical faction of Scottish Covenanters who followed the teachings of Richard Cameron, and who were composed principally of those who signed the Sanquhar Declaration in 1680.  Known also as "Society Men", "Sanquharians," and "Hillmen", they became a separate church after the religious settlement of 1690, taking the official title of "Reformed Presbyterians" in 1743.  "Societies of Cameronians for the Maintenance of the Presbyterian Form of Worship" were formed about 1681.  Their testimony, ""The Informatory Vindication"", was published in 1687.  They quickly became the most pronounced and active adherents of the covenanting faith.  They wished to restore the ecclesiastical order which had existed between 1638 and 1649, and were dissatisfied with the moderate character of the religious settlement of 1690.  Refusing to take oaths of allegiance to an uncovenanted ruler, or to exercise any civil function, they passed through a period of trial and found some difficulty in maintaining a regular ministry, but in 1706 they were reinforced by some converts from the established church.  They objected strongly to the proposal for the union of England and Scotland, and were suspected of abetting a rising which took place in the west of Scotland in 1706; but there appears to be no foundation for the statement that they intrigued with the Jacobites, and they gave no trouble to the government either in 1715 or in 1745.

The Boerner-Fry Company/Davis Hotel is a historic building located in Iowa City, Iowa, United States.  Emil Louis Boerner was born in Prussia and came to Iowa City with his family when he was 12.  He was educated at the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, and he owned and operated a drugstore in Iowa City for 57 years.  He was also one of the primary organizers of the Iowa Pharmaceutical Association, a member of the faculty at the newly established Iowa College of Pharmacy in Des Moines, and was involved in establishing the Department of Pharmacy at the University of Iowa where he served as its first dean.  Boerner and his partner William A. Fry had this build constructed in 1899 as a factory that produced toilet articles and light pharmaceuticals.  Local contractor Jacob J. Hotz was responsible for its construction.  The factory relocated to another facility in 1915, and went out of business the following year.  This building was used for a variety of businesses until 1922 when it was converted into the Washington Hotel.  George W.
