  • Wikipedia 29 Nov. 2012 (Ethna Carbery (born Anna Johnston, 3 December 1866-21 April 1902) was an Irish journalist, writer and poet. She is best known for the ballad Roddy McCorley and the Song of Ciabh©Łn; the latter was set to music by Ivor Gurney. Along with Alice Milligan she published two Irish nationalist magazines. In 1901 she married poet and folklorist S©♭amus MacManus (1869-1960) and moved with him to Revlin House in County Donegal. It was then that she began writing under the pen name of Ethna Carbery because once she took the last name of MacManus she didn't want to be confused with her husband (also a writer). She died the following year, aged 35. Her poetry was published posthumously.)
