Elkader Register & Argus, Thur., 9 Mar. 1916. Garnavillo News column.

Mrs. Anna Petersen, widow of the late Peter Petersen, passed away on Monday evening at 9:10 o'clock at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Fred Fehlhafer. Mrs. Petersen had been in poor health for a number of years and for some weeks her condition was serious. The deceased, whose maiden name was Anna Dorothea Henricksen, was born on March 2nd, 1849, in Wanderupfeld, Schlesswig, Holstein. She was united in marriage in 1873 at Eggebeck to Peter Petersen, of Flansberg, in Schlesswig, Holstein. In March, 1892, the deceased and her children came to America, the husband and two sons having preceded them some months before. They settled in Milwaukee, where they remained until 1895, when the family came to Garnavillo. This was their home until the spring of 1910, when they took up their abode in Clayton, remaining there until the husband's death some three years ago. Since that time she had been tenderly cared for by her daughter Mrs. Fehlhafer. Her death is mourned by three daughters and two sons: Mrs. F. Fehlhafer and Minnie, of Garnavillo; Mrs. Marie Heuer, of Chicago; Henry, of Chicago; Albert, of Garnavillo, and two sisters in Germany. The funeral was held Thursday afternoon from the residence to St. Paul's Church, the burial being made in the new cemetery.
