Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley

Annie Hanrey was born about 1828 in Scotland.

She emigrated to New Zealand about 1860 and married John Binnie, a baker, in 1865.

The family lived in Dunedin and they had eight children, three who died in infancy.

Annie and John owned the 'Edinburgh Bakery' in George St, John later gave his occupation as confectioner.

When Annie signed the suffrage petition the family were still living in George St, where John died in 1913.

Annie died on 13 December 1917, she is buried with John in the family grave in the Southern Cemetery.
