Anne Edith Bahr was the fourth child born to parents Frederick John Bahr and Margaret Kessler Bahr. Her siblings were Norma Virginia Davis, Frederick Bahr Jr. [see memorial], Harvey Lewis Bahr [see memorial], Minnie [Miller-Gayhardt] [see memorial], Leonard Bahr, Elizabeth Katherine Bahr Ingels, and Centennial Bahr.
Born in Unionville, PA, her family moved to Back Creek, VA and then settled in Cumberland, MD, in a log cabin on Wills Mountain [see photo]. By 1887, the family [except brother Harvey], with their mother, had already left their father (who most likely died that year), as the mortgage had defaulted and mother Margaret had no place to live.
In a Baltimore City Business Directory, Annie is listed, with her sister Norma, as living at 242 Barre St. in Baltimore in 1884, and are china decorators. It is known that they travelled to DC and painted paintings of the cherry blossoms and sold them "like hotcakes." Perhaps that is where she met Edward.
Annie married Edward A. Stevens, of Washington, DC, in 1889. They moved to Lynchburg, VA where he founded the Lynchburg Engraving Co. and when he retired, they moved to D.C. again.
Annie and Ed were parents of three sons: (the second son) Harvey E. [see memorial], (third son), Richard Kingsman Stevens, and (first son) Francis Granger Stevens, being born in June, 1888.
At the time of her death on Easter Day, Annie lived at 1400 Good Hope Rd. with her sister, Elizabeth.
