Anna was born and raised in Ribe - who at the age of almost 17 years old, married with Horsens mayor Hans Olufsøn Riber - son of Oluf Staby, who was also Ripenser - and just as Anna was born in Ribe. They were married in Ribe cathedral in the 9th august in the year of our Lord 1595.

Hans Olufsøn Riber was a reputable and highly prosperous merchant in Horsens at 45 years old when he married Anne. That he was also mayor in more than 25 years in Horsens, probably has not been bad business, but he was a pious and honest grocer.

It was a happy marriage that lasted for 25 years minus one week of his death 7 days before they should have had their silver wedding. Together they had 5 children. Else, Anne, Oluf, Michael and Donald.

Anne Svane was a good and loving mother to her children. But she was also a "fighter" who knew how to take a hand in things when necessary. Evidence suggests that she was also skilled at the business level, after her husband's death she drove his business forward while she would secure the future of her 5 children.

2 of their sons became prominent figures in the Danish political scene, namely, the eldest son Oluf Svane and his brother - Roskilde bishop Hans Svane. On of them has our special interest - in the family context - is the later Horsens mayor Olufsen (Riber) Swan.

But first a little about the archbishop of Roskilde "Hans Svane", which indeed is a significant historical figure in the Danish context.

The background was Denmark's disastrous economic situation after the Swedish wars. The nobility had abandoned during the wars, and there was widespread resentment against them and their tax exemption.

By clever tactical games, including by Hans Svane and Hans Nansen, was outmaneuvered nobility and Frederick III elected hereditary monarch. Thus fell the fierce charter, he had to sign the 1648th

Hans Svane is probably best known for his involvement in the large stænderdermøde in 1660, and his struggle for the introduction of absolute monarchy and the abolition of the nobility's privileges. But he was also a wealthy man in particular, King borrowed some money, as this used include the war against Swedes.

So when King Frederik III, after the war, gave Roskilde Len citizens in Copenhagen - as thanks for their bravery in the war against the Swedes - forgot the king, however, that large parts of the county had pledged to Bishop Svane in Roskilde and Interest Master Müller.

Since these two mortgagees knew their rights, it led to tough negotiations which ended with Bishop Svane, 53 farms and 33 houses, Interest Master Müller had 42 houses, 8 mills and large forests. So it was a considerable fortune in real estate he had.

His daughter Anne Svane - 60 +

Kinch writes about "Anna had on 9th August 1590 wedding with Hans Olufsen Riber, Borger and later Mayor of Horsens and was the mother of the celebrated Bishop (Archbishop) Dr Hans Svane of Zealand Diocese, who played a leading part in Widow Violence Corey Introduction 1660 . "

Hans Olufsen Riber, who was the son of Olaf Staby in Ribe, had 2 sisters, of whom Else was married to Peter Lambertsen in Ribe, and Anne Anders Madsen, Mayor of Horsens.

Peder Hegelund noted in his almanac that "At night or early morning on 18th gave birth to Mary Swan's with a daughter." and it must have been Anne who was born on 18th October The 1573rd

This branch of the family settled in Horsens area.
