Lena Weiss was born in 1861 in either Saar or Lorrain Germany. She was the child of a single mother and was given up for adoption. The Weiss family took her as one of their own. As a teenager, Lena followed in her mother's footsteps and had a child out of wedlock. The baby was christened Anna. Lena's parents adopted the baby Anna and raised her as their daughter.

Lena immigrated to America in 1891 (age 30). She married Adam Brickner in 1893. After Adam died in 1931, Lena remarried in 1947 to Carmine Gaeta. Lena also outlived Carmine, passing away on 6/6/1962 at the age of 101.

Adam Brickner's headstone has a place for Lena, but it remains undated. It is likely that Lena is not buried here but rather with her second husband Carmine Gaeta (location unknown)
