Annie May Meehan,final daughter of Michael Meehan and Annie Harris.

Annie May Meehan was born in Yarrawonga on May 31, 1906, to 38 year old Annie Harris and her husband 48 year old Michael Meehan.Her siblings were listed on her birth certificate as being Margaret, 10; Henry 8; John 5 and Mary 2.
Annie was educated in Yarrawonga, and then moved to Northcote/Thornbury in the early 1920s. She lived at 28 Pender Street, Thornbury, until her marriage in 1935 to commercial artist Sydney Gough Wentt.
After her marriage Annie lived at 457 Main Street, Mordialloc, and she and Sydney were still residing there at the time of the 1954 electoral roll. In all electoral rolls, Annie's occupation was given as "sales".
Mary Waters recorded that she thought that Annie had two children, Elizabeth and Peter, but this is yet to be substantiated by me.
