Born in Milwaukee to a father who was a cigar maker, Lena married into the same trade.

She wed John Tiegs, born in Grafton, Wisconsin to Johann and Doretha Tiegs of Pomerania, on the 12th of January, 1899.

Although starting her own family in Milwaukee, she and her husband soon joined her parents and brother Harry's family in Grafton where they all settled near one another.

Lena worked in the nearby woolen mills, a job that at least one of her daughters would also one day pursue.

Lena and John had several children:

Erwin, Lilly, Rosa (who were born in Milwaukee); Raymond and Florence (both born in Grafton).

Lena rests here with her parents and several siblings.

Her last known address was 1533 Wisconsin St, Grafton.
