Story

Years Following Henri's Death
Henri died in 1918. The electoral roll for 1919 shows Annie, Vincent and Andre still at High St, but none is shown as running the wine shop.4,5
 
In 1921, all three left the Shepparton area. Annie sold the Elizabeth St, Mooroopna property she had received as part of her mother's estate. Electoral rolls for 1921 and 1922 show Annie, Vincent and Andre living in Owen St, Carlton South.6,7,8
 
By 1924, Vince had left and by 1925 all three were in different places. Annie was in Banole Ave in Prahran and Vince had returned to Shepparton staying at the Court House Hotel. It is uncertain where Andre was, but by 1931 he was living in Barkly St, Fitzroy North.9,10,11,12
 
Marriage and Family
Vince Fortin and Nancy (Lilian) Brady married in 1935.

Lilian McGuire had married Michael Brady in 1926. We don't know what happened to Michael, but around 1929, Vince Fortin and Lilian Brady had a child Eugene Henri Fortin. Eugene died in 1930 with one official record stating he was one year old and another stating he was six (probably months).

After their marriage, Vince and Nancy (Lilian) had three more children.13,14,15
