*Transcriber note: The July 13 obituary (not transcribed) is identical except for the paragraph on survivors which lists her sisters as her children. I assume the July 20 obituary was published as a correction. Based on obituaries posted on this site, the parents of Helen Tiedemann Greve were Christian and Magdalena (Langemak) Tiedemann.
**Transcriber note: Kiel, Wisconsin is in Manitowoc County and Calumet County, although it may have been Sheboygan County in 1859.
**The spelling of Helene was taken from a previous obituary entry.
