Anna Sidler 1734 - 1770

Anna Sidler was born 7 December 1734 to Hans Kaspar Sidler and Veronica Schneebeli in Ottenbach. Her father, Hans Kaspar Sidler, was 30 and her mother, Veronica Schneebeli, was 25. Anna's father was a well known "treasurer" and Edgaumer. Anna grew up as all children did learning how to pray, memorizing the 10 commandments, and the small and large Catechism. When she was 18 she passed a religious test and was able to partake of the Lord's supper otherwise called the sacrament.

When she was of age she married Mathias Meier. Mathias Meier was born in March 1734, in Hedingen, Zürich, Switzerland. He is the son of Hans Jacob Meyer and Dorothea Widmer. 

In 1765 the couple had their only child named Veronegg Meier.She was named after her grandmother. The date was 3 December 1765  in Hedingen, Affoltern, Zürich, Switzerland. 

Julius Billeter says Anna died 7 October 1770 which made her about 36 when she died. Upon her death Anna left her only daughter Veronegg Meier who was 5 years old. Anna's Pastor, Hans Rudolf Hamberger,  says Anna died from a high fever and a usual associated stroke. Pastor Hemberger, himself, died six years after Anna.

Wolf: There is no clearcut border - this is just as she was called, more just another variation than a nickname, I would say.
