Anna was born in Saxony around September 1822. She married Johann Ernst Altus in Nechern on 4 September 1842.[1]
She migrated to South Australia with her family on the barque Alfred, arriving in Port Adelaide on 4 November 1857.[1]
They lived initially at Bethel near Kapunda, where her husband died after only a few years in the colony.
Anna died in Petersburg (now Peterborough) on 19 May 1894, [1][2] and is buried at the Peterborough cemetery.[3]

I believe that Nechern was in the part of Königreich Sachsen (Kingdom of Saxony) which was not annexed by the Königreich Preußen (Kingdom of Prussia) in 1816. I think the marriage location 'Nechern, Saxony' is accurate.
