She is recorded as having died in Grabowo on October 17, 1849 at the age of 56 (which would make her birthdate about 1793). She is listed as the wife of farmer/landowner Georg Wieser (George without the "e" - a common variation in the spelling) and it indicates that she died of cholera.
In the line below the one listing Anna Rosina's death is the death of a Matthaeus (Matthew) Ziemer, who was Anna Rosina and George Wieser's son-in-law. He also died of cholera. His widowed wife is listed as Elisabeth (nee Wieser).
