Son of Ernst Albert Tietjen and Emma Olena Erickson. Married Rebecca Annie Roundy , December 12, 1927, in Hurricane, Utah.

"Al Tietjen was the last of Ernest Tietjen's nine children by Emma O. Erickson. He was born in Bluewater on June 20, 1896. Being the baby of the family, he was naturally spoiled by doting sisters. As a young man he was dubbed "Shorty", "Runt", and "Shrimp" because he did not gain his full height, six feet four inches, until he was 25 years of age. Not as tall as Joe and Alma, he had a heavier build than they, and had such an imposing stature that he was known by everyone as "Big Al"." From Gary Tietjen, Ernst Albert Tietjen: Missionary and Colonizer (Bountiful, Utah: Family History Publishers, 1992)
