Abstract
Born in 1770 Mary Ann McCracken lived to the ripe old age of ninety-six. Her life spans practically a century of Irish history, a century which experienced the growth of Belfast as a thriving industrial city, the radical political movement of the United Irishmen and the Young Irelanders, the campaigns of Daniel O'Connell and the development of Orangeism in the North. This article illustrates the neglected contribution of a formidable Ulster woman to the crucial debates of her times.
