Annie was the daughter of George William and Sarah Thomas. At the age of 7 she lost her mother; her father looking to remarry possibly tried to find a place for his second youngest daughter. That place was within the Grant family who had also lost a parent; a father Ernest Grant in this case. In the 1881 census she is listed as a servant within the Grant household and married William Alexander in 1891. After her marriage it appears she began to list her year or birth as 1871 rather than 1867 and her maiden name to that of Grant.
