Henrietta came to America in 1882 where she married Matthaus "Matt" Wiedenman on March 29, 1886 in Waukon, Allamakee County, Iowa. She became the mother of four children who lived to adulthood (three sons and one daughter) documented on this memorial page. Three sons died in infancy.
Henrietta's year of birth is questioned. The year 1853 is on her gravestone. Her obituary provides 1854. Other records indicate her birth as late as 1856.
