Peter Lenz was born around 1789 in an area by the Rhine River. He married Margaretha FUHR in Hessen Darmstadt, Germany. Peter and Margaretha had 5 sons and 4 daughters. Peter lived on a farm near Mundheim and Laudenbach, which were 10 to 15 miles apart, about 3 miles from Kaeferthal, Baden, in southern Germany. They were weavers in the winter, making cloth for clothing and fine tablecloths, bed spreads and draperies. In summer, they were farmers and vintners.
