Lena is a village in Oconto County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 564 at the 2010 census. It is part of the Green Bay Metropolitan Statistical Area. The village is located within the Town of Lena. ==History== Originally known as the Maple Valley settlement, Lena owes its location to the railroads. The first white settler at the site that became Lena was the French-Swiss immigrant Étienne Clement Roserens (also spelled Rosera, 1831–1911)〔(Étienne Clement Roserens grave )〕 together with his French-Canadian wife Vitaline née Tessier (1842–1919), who established a homestead in October 1872.〔Klimko, Robert Louis. 1982. ''The Swiss-Family Roserens.'' Appleton: Author.〕〔Perrin, Richard W. E. 1967. ''The Architecture of Wisconsin''. Madison: State Historical Society of Wisconsin, p. 29.〕 Other early white settlers in this vicinity arrived in the late 1870s and consisted primarily of French Canadian immigrants. One French Canadian immigrant was Sam Roy, also known as Sam King. King homesteaded land in 1872 and donated land for the first schoolhouse. As was common in other areas populated by French-Canadians during this era, most of the Maple Valley residents engaged in small-scale logging, concentrating their work and their homes along Jones Creek, a tributary of the Little River. By 1879 the community had become large enough to support a post office and, since the name "Maple Valley" had already been assigned to another Wisconsin post office, the recommendation of a new name fell to Oconto Postmaster George R. Hall (1853–1935).〔''Oconto County Reporter'', 23 Aug 1935.〕 Hall submitted the first name of his future wife (Helena "Lena" Louisa McCartney, 1858–1927)〔〔Hall, George E. 2009. ''A History of Oconto.'' 2nd ed., edited by Duane Ebert and Pamela Ann Loberger. Oconto, WI: Oconto County Historical Society, p. 265.〕 to the federal postmaster, and the choice was approved. Lena was incorporated as a village in 1921.
