I have very little that is specifically about Anna, but I am looking. I don't have a photo I can post here, although I do have a larger photograph of her.
In 1880 Anna was living in Hyrum with Lars and his first wife, Sophia, and their children, and Anna's oldest son Peter.
In 1900 she was living in Wellsville, Utah with her two daughters, Laura and Sarah (listed as Clara in the census). Peter had married a few months earlier and Anna's other son, Abel, had died in 1893 when he was 5 years old. Lars was living with his first wife in Hyrum.
Here is what was printed in the Deseret News when Anna died:
Anna Dorothea Sorensen Christiansen, wife of Lars Christiansen, died on the 30th ult, of general disability, she having been ailing for several years.She was born Nov. 21, 1850, at Vallingerod, Holbek Amt. Denmark; embraced the Gospel when young, emigrated with her parents and arrived here in 1874; married the same year. A husband and three grown children mourn the departure of an industrious, faithful wife and kind mother. One child preceded her to the great beyond.
