Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley
Ellen Nolan was born about 1844 in Ireland.
She emigrated to New Zealand, as did three of her siblings, and she married John Ryall, a contractor, in 1881.
They had two sons and when Ellen signed the suffrage petition they were living in Cargill Road, South Dunedin.
John died in 1915 and Ellen died on 31 July 1919 – they are buried together in the Southern Cemetery.
