En dan is er ook nog het "Tientjens-archief". Zoals hier te lezen is, had Laurens Hammond een zuster, Eunice Strong Hammond (1884–1944), die zich later Eunice Tietjens zou noemen. Ze werd een bekend schrijfster en journaliste.
Deze vrouw liet ook een archief na, waarin zich een grote hoeveelheid privé-foto's,brieven en herinneringen aan het leven van en met Laurens Hammond bevinden.

American poet, novelist, journalist, children's author, lecturer, and editor.
Eunice Tietjens was born Eunice Strong Hammond in Chicago in 1884, and she died in Chicago in 1944. Mainly educated in Europe, all her life she was a constant traveler and lived for short periods of time in Florida, New York, Japan, China, the South Seas and Tunisia. She married the composer Paul Tietjens in 1904, divorced him in 1914 and in 1920 married Cloyd Head, playwright and theatrical director. She had two children, Janet T. Hart and Marshall Head.
Tietjens was a World War I correspondent for the Chicago Daily News in France, 1917-1918, and for more than twenty-five years she was on the staff of Harriet Monroe's publication, Poetry: A Magazine of Verse. Her published work is varied, consisting of four volumes of poetry, a novel, numerous articles, travel books, books for children, an anthology of Oriental poetry, translations from Spanish and French literature, and her memoirs entitled The World at My Shoulder, 1938.
Although Eunice Tietjens' role as a Chicago literary figure is interesting, her reputation rests less on her own work and more on the relationships she maintained and the influence she had as friend, critic and editor of some important writers of the early twentieth-century, including Edgar Lee Masters and Sara Teasdale.
The Eunice Tietjens Papers-Additions consists of a few pieces of incoming correspondence, including one letter and one poem from Edgar Lee Masters and two letters from Sara Teasdale, a small number of mementos and miscellaneous items and several boxes of Tietjens' work, both manuscript and published, as well as material relating to Tietjens' forebears, the Hammonds and the Strongs, her daughter, Janet Tietjens Head, and her first husband, Paul Tietjens. There are three boxes of photographs of Eunice Tietjens and her family, including her mother, Idea Hammond, her sisters Elizabeth and Louise, her brother Laurens, and her daughter Janet, as well as a number of images of well-known people such as Robert Frost, Vachel Lindsay, Edgar Lee Masters, Harriet Monroe and Mark Twain.
Narrative descriptions of the subject matter, types of material, and arrangement of each series are available through the Organization section of the finding aid.
