Anne Olsdatter was born October 11, 1833 at Tingelstad or Jaren, Hadeland, Gran, Norway to Ole Larsen Hvamstad and Berthe Torstensdatter Gagnum, the second of their ten children.

Anna married Gulbrand Lundberg Gulbrandsen on February 3, 1863 at Hadeland. The couple had one son, Lars (born 1863).

In 1865, the couple and son emigrated to America, landing at New York City and traveling on to settle at Nordness, Winneshiek Co, Iowa near the Washington Prairie Chruch, southeast of Decorah, Iowa. There, they dropped the Lundberg surname and used Gulbrandsen. They lived in that area about 4 years and 2 more sons were born: Gilles in 1867 and Martin in 1868.

In 1869, the family moved to Cedar township, Mitchell County, Iowa where their three daughters were born: Anna Olava (1871); Bertha Louise (1874) and Martha Maria (1876). Anne's brother, Ole Hvamstad (Wamstad), who had emigrated to Iowa in 1864 moved to Mitchell County with them. The 2 family's farms sat beside each other.

The family was active in the Rock Creek Lutheran Church at Meroa, Iowa.
