Annie is reported to come from well-to-do parents. But their plantation was destroyed by fire. (Was this why they moved to Ireland, or was this a plantatio in Ireland?) Annie had to go to work as a Ladie's Lady for a rich family. There she met Joseph Keeler who was the Coachman. They married against her parents wishes.
Joseph Keeler had relatives in Australia and the United States and chose to relocate and settle in Holyoke, MA, USA.
After Joseph died at 46 due to complications from injuries at work, Annie had t take in washing and ironing to keep the family together. At some point, Annie moved in with her daughter Annie and husband Ed.
Annie never forgave her husband Joe for taking the family to America. Her famil felt discraced to think she would marry beneath her stature, so she was ostracised. It is believed she never communicated with her parents after moving to America
