Lena was married to Bernard McCann and lived at one point on Pothouse Road in Phoenixville. She was a station master.
This marriage produced three sons, Paul John, Francis and Joseph. Lena refused to talk about her husband and their life together, but they separated while their sons were small, and she raised her children by herself. She supported herself and her family by working as a seamstress. She was a fiercely independent and determined woman, very frugal in her ways and a staunch Catholic. She did relate to me, during one of our lengthy conversations, that her parents had been born in Europe, and that her father was a farmer.
She lived in a 250 year old stone house, which she purchased herself. This was a rather ramshackle old house, filled with mismatched furniture, love and laughter. She was a grand old lady and a delight to have known.
