Annis is an unincorporated community in Jefferson County, Idaho, United States. Annis is Шаблон:Convert north-northeast of Rigby.

The first settlement at Annis was made in 1879.[1] The community is named for Ann Kearney, first post mistress, plus the first letters of the word "island".[2]

Kearneys applied for postal service in 1886 which was granted in 1896 but with the name of Annis."
Plaque No. 419 erected by the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers in 1982.
