Notes

Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley.

When Ann signed the suffrage petition she and her husband David Blakely had a grocery store in North East Valley, Dunedin.

In 1898 their shop & dwelling burned down due to a coal fire “left burning in an open fireplace”.

After this they disappear from the records & may have left the country.
