| Notes |
- (The following is from the Mormon genealogy web site: https://new.familysearch.org/en/action/unsec/welcome - KWVM-WGQ - accessed 14 Jun 2015)
?i?Ane ("Annie") Andersen and her children helped to found Bear River City, Utah after a long journey from Denmark. Ane's husband Anders Pedersen (also called Peder Andersen in America by the family) died in Denmark, and Ane sold thousands of acres of land in Jaegerspris, near Copenhagen, Denmark, to bring her children and other pioneers to America. She was a convert to the LDS faith -- and her daughter Christina Marie wrote that their father's death became her mother's "pearl of great price," for it was due to this trial that Annie changed her life and left her beloved homeland of Denmark to follow her new faith. Annie left a life of privilege and wealth, to become a true Utah pioneer, and spent the last years of her life living in a dirt dugout in this new land. She was a strong, courageous woman of great faith. She has left a great heritage for her posterity.?/i?
