Her parents were Russian-German Mennonites, but Tina and all her siblings were born in Kansas. In 1910, Tina K Penner was 20, and attending Bethel College, in North Newton, Kansas. She was living at home, and there were 12 living children (her mother, told the census takers that 2 had passed away). That year her father, H.D. Penner was teaching in a preparatory school. The children living at home were: Rachel R (24) teaching at the preparatory school, Daniel D (22) teaching at a district school, Tina K (20) going to college, Clara L (19), Ernest W (17), Albert H (15), Linda C (12), Ruth V (10), Waldo H (8), Hulda E (6) and baby Verna L (2). On March 4, 1914, she married J.J.R. Claassen, in Newton, Kansas. That must have been a large wedding, simply with the sisters and brothers! Tina and JJR moved to Gage County, in Nebraska. They were active in the Mennonite Church. Sept. 12, 1918, JJR filled out his draft card for World War I. At the time, he was 32 years old, listing his wife, Christine, as his nearest relative, and described by the enlister as being of medium height, slender build, with brown eyes and brown hair. In 1930, John J R (JJR) Claassen and his wife, Christine, were farming in Riverside Township, Gage County, Nebraska. Their children at the time of the 1930 Census were: Anna D. (15) Paul G. (12) John C. (10) (Carl) Donald A.(7) Waldo F. (3) By 1940, JJR and Christine were still farming. They owned their farm, and estimated its value at $30,000. Anna was no longer at home, but sons Paul (22), Carl (20), Donald (17) and Waldo (13) were farming with their father. Carl was now known by his middle name. Christine Claassen passed away in 1959, and was buried in the family plot at the "Country" church, First Mennonite. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ National Archives; cemetery records; kind assistance of Rudy Brockmueller 47917004 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
