Drawing of Anne Devlin
Anne Devlin was born in Wicklow in 1778. She moved to a farm in Rathfarnham with her family after the 1798 Rebellion. In 1803, Robert Emmet rented the nearby Butterfield House. Anne became his faithful servant and friend and assisted him in his preparations for his ill-fated insurrection. She was arrested and imprisoned in Kilmainham for high treason. She married some years after her release, but eventually died in poverty in the Liberties in Dublin.
