Born 23 September 1910 in Mellerud (P).
Died 24 January 1998 in Trollhättan (P). Annie was born in 1910 as number three in the family of Samuel and Ida Peterson in Mellerud, Dalsland. She went to school there but the family moved to Malmö when she was ten years old. When she had finished school, she worked in a haberdasher's shop for a while. Annie met her future husband, Henry Henryd, in Malmö, where he served as a pastor in one of the churches belonging to Sv. Missionsförbundet, Betlehemskyrkan, in Malmö. They married in 1931 and moved to Lit in Jämtland and then to Söderhamn in Hälsingland. During this time the family's three children were born, Karin, Lars and Anita. They grew up in Sollefteå in Ångermanland and in Ljungby in Småland, where Henry served as a pastor. After living in Ljungby for 9 years, Henry and Annie moved back to Norrland, this time to Härnösand, where Henry served as a superintendent of the district of Västernorrland. When pensioned Henry and Annie moved to Trollhättan, where Annie was living until she died in 1998. Like her husband she is buried at the cemetery of Håjum in Trollhättan. |
