The subject of this biography was born in Holstein, Germany, March 16, 1813, and the son of Joseph and Anna Mohr Tietjens, both of Holstein, Germany. Mr. Tietjens of this writing, emigrated to America in 1856, (left on May 15, 1856 on the ship Ann Washburn, from the port of Hamburg) landing at New York, and came to his present home in Clinton County, where he purchased a farm of eighty acres on section 21, Hampshire Township. He was married in 1836. The lady of his choice was born December 23, 1813 and died October 21, 1872. Her maiden name was Antje Rohrvedder (Rohwedder). The subject of this biography is the father of eight children, seven of whom survive, as follows: Joseph (Jochim), born September 10, 1836; George (Jurgen), born July 15, 1838; John, born Sepember 18, 1840; Anna, born September 25, 1842; Marx, born May 5, 1844; Hans H., born April 11, 1846; Catherine, born March 30, 1848; and William, born March 12, 1851. John, who was in the army, a member of Company M, 2nd Iowa Cavalry, died at the hospital at Keokuk, his disease being the outgrowth of injuries received while in the army. He was a brave soldier and in him his country lost a gallant defender. Our subject is a member of the Lutheran Church and is devoted in religious principle to that organization. In Politics he is a Democrat. He received his education in the common schools of Germany, and has from boyhood shown a fondness for mechanical pursuits, and is the patentee of a hand plow. This was patented September 3, 1867, and is more especially designed for the cultivation of gardens, hedges, nurseries, etc., where neatness is required in turning the furrow. It also avoids the marks left among the flowers by the feet of the horses. Mr. Tietjens left school at the age of sixteen and was apprenticed to blacksmithing. He learned the trade and worked at it at Bramstedt, Holstein, Germany, until he was forty-three years of age, when he emigrated to America. He has a shop in Hampshire Township, on his farm, and did the best of work in that direction while able to labor at all. He is a man much esteemed and respected by the community for his perseverance and integrity of character.
