Anna's Hope Village

Anna's Hope Village () is an administrative sub-district of St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands.

History

A sugar plantation on the site was formerly known as Robinson's Plantings. In around 1780, it was acquired by Count Bertram Peter de Nully (c. 1719 -1771), the son of Pierre Bertram de Nully from Martinique. The family was originally from the Netherlands to St. Eustace. He would later marry Catharine Heyliger (1721–1799), the daughter of planter and governor of St. Croix Pieter Heyliger. Robinson's Platings was renamed Anna's Hope after their daughter Anna (1747–1785). She was married to Nicholas Cruger. They had three children: Bertram Peter Cruger; Catherine Bard and Elizabeth Cruger.
