Lena LANSBERG

Notes:

Wisconsin Births and Christenings records a Helena Hamen b. 14 Jul 1854 in Fredonia, Ozaukee County, to Peter Hamen and Catherine Ersterwitz.

She may be the 10 year-old Lena Kraemer living with Peter Hubert and Elizabeth Hubert in Grafton, Ozaukee County, Wisconsin, in the 1860 census. There are three other children with the surname Kraemer in that household, Christina, 20, Joseph, 17, and Gertrude, 6. Joseph and Christina were likely Lena and Gertrude’s half-sibs.

She was Lena Schneider when she married John H Augustine in 1880.

The 1900 census shows her as having had 7 children, 6 still living.

Both of her parents were born in Germany.

She was referred to as Lena Kramer on Frank’s birth certificate. That is also the name ascribed to her by sharriwojcik.

In the 1880 census, John and Lena lived in a dwelling in which lived a 22 year-old Helena Kraemer, “grandchild.” That may be the same Helena as the 1 year-old Helena Kramer in the 1860 census who lived with her mother Maria and her sister Eleanore in Grafton in Ozaukee County. Maria, perhaps a recent widow. was 24, a “grocery keeper”, and had been born in Hesse.

Following her First Vows at Kenwood on February 11, 1938, Sister Augustine was assigned to the Hardey Prep Sacred Heart School for Boys on Sheridan Road in Chicago, where she soon was put in charge.  On August 2, 1943, she made her profession of Final Vows at Kenwood, and then moved to middle school teaching, first at Duchesne Academy, Omaha, then at the Convent of the Sacred Heart in St. Joseph, Missouri.  During that time, she completed her B.A. in history at Duchesne College and her M.A. in history at Creighton University, in Omaha.

While working on her Ph.D. in European history and political science at Catholic University in Washington, D.C., Sister Augustine was sent to Duchesne College as dean of students and history professor. In 1957, sudden illness required that she be sent to Chicago for two surgeries; after recuperation, she became college coordinator and taught history at Barat College, Lake Forest, Illinois.  She moved back and forth between Barat and Duchesne until the latter closed in 1968 and she began serving as director of admissions at Barat College.

From 1978 to 1983, Sister Augustine served as college admissions director at the Convent of the Sacred Heart Sheridan Road, providing guidance for college-bound juniors and seniors.  Her third career began in 1983 at the Howard Area Community Center, a social service agency in Chicago, where, for ten years, she taught in the G.E.D. program, helping women finish their education and acquire good jobs.

In 2000, at age 86, Sister Augustine moved to Oakwood, where she remained active and participated in a ministry of prayer for almost ten years. She died peacefully surrounded by her sisters. 

The funeral Mass for Sister Augustine will take place at Oakwood, on December 11, 2010, at 10:00 o’clock. Mass will be followed by burial in the Oakwood cemetery and sharing of memories in the Oakwood community, 140 Valparaiso Ave., Atherton CA 94027.
