Anne (Annie) was the oldest of three daughters of Marcia Bowen (Winter) Anderson (1824-1898) and John Farwell Anderson (1823-1887), Portland, Maine. John F. Anderson's father (John Anderson) was the mayor of Portland, and served in other political roles. John Farwell Anderson was an executive with the railroad. The girls were raised in two different "upscale" homes in Portland and living at times at the family farm (Maplewood Farm and Anderson-Lord House) in south Windham, ME. Being from a prominent and politically connected family, the girls attended private schools and associated with other prominent families of the region.
Anne was named after her grandmother (John F. Anderson's mother), Ann (Hichborn) Jameson (1779-1847). The spelling is most commonly Hichborn, occasionally Hichborne and rarely Hitchborn.
Anne married a widower, Charles William Lord, born in Kennebunk, Maine. The couple move to Newton, MA, where Charles grew his leather-tanning business. Both of the Lord's son's (John and Robert) went into the leather business in Gorham, Maine, as did some of the grandsons.
After leather was replaced with synthetics, Charles transitioned into the real estate business in the Boston area. The couple had four children, one (Philip) died as an infant. In 1880, they built a new home at 151 Waverley Ave., Newton, MA. It was in this home that Charles died in 1917, two years prior to Anne. Anne's timeline is as follows.

• 1860―Windham, ME (Maplewood farm)
• 1870―Married 23 June 1870
