Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley.

Agnes Munro was born about 1869 in Dunedin – the daughter of George Munro, a monumental sculptor, and Mary Ann Lewis. (See 68 M A Munro)

When Agnes signed the suffrage petition she was living with her family in Victoria St, St Clair.

She married Michael John Redmond, a clerk, in 1903 and they had a son the following year.

The marriage did not appear to last long as Michael moved to Wellington and Agnes remained in Dunedin.

Agnes died in Dunedin on 11 July 1938 – she is buried with her sister in the Southern Cemetery.

Michael died in Wellington in 1958 – he is buried in the Karori Cemetery.
