Her birth name was Hannah Abbie Gifford. Apparently, she did not care for the name Hannah, and from about the time of her first marriage, preferred to be called Annie. In her later years until her death, she went by the name Anna A. Stevenson. When the grave marker was placed, her son, Harold, chose to have her name engraved as "Annie A. Bosworth".
Annie was married first to John Nelson Bosworth on May 1, 1892 in Tiverton, Rhode Island.
Together John & Annie had three sons, only one of whom lived to adulthood.
Annie was married second to William Arthur Stevenson on December 2, 1913 in Manhattan, New York City. At the time of her death, she resided at 304 Mulberry St., New York City.
She was buried here next to her parents, brother Charles H. Gifford, and her grandson, William H. G. Bosworth.
