Anna Throndsen is known in modern Norway as Skottefruen, "the Scottish Lady". This was a name attributed to Anna during her lifetime, after return from Scotland, to the Bergen, Norway area, where her family had several residences.
She never remarried. She was, however, socially active and prominent in local events and social affairs, such as is recorded in various historical diaries from the period. Evidently she was wealthy in her own right, due to some good investments of her inheritance. She is said to have spent her last days in Utstein Abbey, a converted former-convent outside of Stavanger. It is understood that she became a nun late in life; if so, this would have been indicative of her family's Catholic background. Her father had been a cousin of the last Norwegian archbishop, Olav Engelbrektsson.
Several historical novels have been written about her as Skottefruen, in the Norwegian language; these used temporal journals and diaries as reference.
