    Notes:

    Read biography of Francis Steffen about Anna Steffen to verify her maiden name is the same.

    Biography:
    Anna Steffen was born on July 27, 1863 in Hortonville, Outagamie, Wisconsin to Jacob Steffen, Jr. and Isabella (McMurdo)Steffen. Her father died less than a year later (March 5, 1864) while serving with the Union Army at Vicksburg, Mississippi. Her mother Isabella later married Jacob's brother Francis (or "Franz") who was also a Civil War Veteran. With Francis, Isabella had at least 6 more children, so Anna grew up with a stepfather who was also her uncle, and numerous half-siblings who were also (interestingly enough) technically her cousins!

    To make matters more interesting she married, on May 18, 1887, her first cousin Lewis Steffen, who was son of her father (and step-father's!) full brother John Steffen. (To put it another way, she and her husband had the same biological paternal grandparents -- Jakob and Mary Elizabeth (Houbreck) Steffen!

    Both Lewis and Anna's parents (and grandfather Jakob Steffen) had immigrated from Germany in 1848 with several brothers, some of whom also settled in the Hortonville area. So they both grew up surrounded by Steffen uncles and cousins.

    Anna and Lewis had tried briefly to homestead, as wheat farmers, in North Dakota, near Jamestown, in the late 1880's right after they got married. They had and lost a daughter there (Florence Jessie, born May 26 1889 and died August 18 1889). Back in Hortonville soon after, they had daughter Ercelle December 16 1890, and son Gerald Ira December 9 1897.

    In Hortonville her husband Lewis had partnered with his brother Peter in a threshing business and in the purchase and operation of their farm. Peter lived with them as a single man. The Census of 1900 and 1910 also shows they had two servants. It appears their family was quite prosperous.

    Lewis died in 1917. Anna followed on July 12, 1926. They are buried together in Saints Peter and Paul Cemetery, Hortonville, Wisconsin.

    Anna married Steffen, Frank Lewis "Louis" 18 May 1887. Frank (son of Steffen, John and Stark, Applonia) was born 5 May 1858, Hortonville, Outagamie, Wisconsin, USA; died 22 Oct 1917, Hortonville, Outagamie, Wisconsin, USA; was buried , Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Cemetery, Hortonville, Wisconsin, USA.

    Obituary:
    Funeral Services of the Late Ira Steffin Hortonville, June 4- The funeral services of Ira Steffin, who died at Appleton, May 29, were conducted on Sunday afternoon, June 1, by the Rev. W. Mitchell at the Union church, Hortonville. Mr. Steffin was a son of Francis and Isabelle Steffin. His father was a soldier of the civil war and died about the time the war closed, the G.A.R. post of Hortonville is named in honor of his memory. The subject of this notice was a young man of many excellent quailities of heart and mind, and his early demise id deeply deplored by a large circle of intimate friends. He was nearly 24 years of age, and died of that dread disease- consumption. He was a member of the I.O.O.F. and his brethren attended the funeral in a body, conducting the exercises at the grave. Mrs. Steffin, his mother, and the brothers and sisters feel most keenly the bereavement they are called to suffer, and have the sympathy of all.

    Leo will always be remembered for his soft and compassionate heart and his witty humor. Blessed with the "gift of gab," he brought life and laughter to any conversation. Even through his battle with cancer, he maintained a light-hearted nature that put his loved ones at ease and brought about a sense of peace and understanding. He will be dearly missed as a husband, a father, a brother, a grandpa and friend. As he begins renewed life with our Creator, he leaves his loved ones behind with a special kind of humor that will always keep his spirit alive.
