Annie Goonwing is believed to have been abandoned by her natural mother and adopted by Mrs Goonwing and her Chinese-born husband Arthur Goonwing (or Ah Wing). Her birth certificate can not be located, nor is she listed as a sibling on the birth certificates of the Goonwings other children. She is however mentioned on her mother's death certificate in 1903. She had an adopted brother, Albert Goonwing and sister Henrietta Goonwing.
