Anne Elizabeth Ball
Anne Elizabeth Ball (1808–1872) was an Irish botanist, amateur algologist, and botanical illustrator. Born in 1808, Ball was a sister of naturalist Robert Ball (1802–1857) and zoologist Mary Ball (1812–1898). The siblings became interested in natural history through the passion of their father, Bob Stawell Ball.
==Background==
In 1818, Anne Ball moved to Youghal, another seaport town in County Cork, with her family and it was here that Ball, in her early twenties, began to collect and study marine algae. In 1837 her sister and father moved away from Cork to Dublin, where she resided until her death. Anne continued her algae collecting in Dublin and, although not a member of the Dublin scientific societies, Anne established herself as a successful algologist.〔 However, as was then the custom, her work was published by male naturalists such as William Henry Harvey (a friend of her brother's), James Mackay, and others.〔 However these relationships were not entirely one-sided. William Harvey supported and encouraged her work, naming the genus ''Ballia''〔 and the species ''Cladophora balliana'' for her.〔 Ball collected the original specimen of ''Cladophora balliana'' on 16 May 1843 at Clontarf.〔 They also collaborated on Harvey's ''Phycologia Britannica'' (1846–1851).〔 Ball also contributed illustrated records of hydroids to William Thompson and these were published in volume four of ''The Natural History of Ireland'' in 1856.〔
