==Life==
Marianne Edwardine Fannin was born in Dublin on 2 March 1845, the daughter of Thomas and Ellen Fannin. When Fannin was a few months old, her family emigrated from Dublin to South Africa. Initially they loved on the Cape of Good Hope. They then took up residence on the Dargle, a tributary of the Umgeni River, and it was named after a stream near Dublin by Fannin's father.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://plants.jstor.org/stable/10.5555/al.ap.person.bm000125777 )〕 The local district is now know by the name Dargle.〔
Fannin first married Reverend Eustace Wilberforce Jacob in 1869. The couple travelled to England in 1871, with Jacob dying soon after their arrival. Fannin remained in England for a period, studying music and painting. She returned to South Africa in 1875. From 1878, she lived in Transvaal, marrying Reverend Alfred Roberts in 1879 whom she met through a mission party. Roberts later went on to become Archdeacon. The couple lived in Potchefstroom from 1881 to 1896, where they had two sons. Their son, Dr Austin Roberts, went on to become an eminent ornithologist.〔 Fannin was one of the founding member of St Mary's Diocesan School of Girls, and Roberts served as headmaster of the boys' school St Birinus's. In 1881, during the siege of Pretoria, Fannin returned to the family home in Natal.〔 Fannin died on 18 November 1938, either in Heidelberg, Gauteng,〔〔 or at New Muckleneuk, Pretoria.〔
