Biography

Annie (Suhr) Holst has roots in the region now known as Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

Annie was born January 8, 1908 in Holstein, Germany. She immigrated to America with her parents Marie Rohde Suhr and John Suhr (Johannes) when she was about a 3 years old. They arrived in New York on March 24, 1911. ^[1][2]

They sailed on the ship, "President Lincoln" with other extended family from the port of Cuxhaven and arrived in Ellis Island, New York on March 12, 1911 on the ship "President Lincoln". The Passenger Arrival List showed Mary (30), John (28), and 3 year old child "Anny".

H.D. Sr and Antje Hennings Rohde family in 1915 (Annie, about 5 years old, is standing between her grandmother and grandfather)

The 1920 Census for rural Saunders, Nebraska shows Annie (Anna) living with her parents and brother Carl. ^[3]

Annie (age 21), married Pete Holst (age 27, born in Germany) on 30 June 1929 in Yutan, Saunders, Nebraska, United States.^[4]

It lists both Annie and Peter's births as Holstein, Germany. They had a boarder living with them, Fred Lawrence. Both Fred and Peter listed their occupations as "hide seller in a meat packing house". ^[5]
