Anne Bronte
 
 
A
Anne Brontë (January 17, 1820 – May 28, 1849) 
was a British author, one of a trio of famous Brontë sisters who 
wrote acclaimed Victorian romantic novels of manners and society.

She was born in the village of Thornton, Yorkshire, England. 
Anne's mother died a year later, after the family had moved to 
Haworth where her father was perpetual curate. Two of her sisters, 
Charlotte and Emily, were also authors and poets. Anne's poetry was 
published, along with that of her sisters, in 1846, under the 
pseudonym "Acton Bell".

Her novels are:

    * Agnes Grey, published 1847
    * The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, published 1848

Anne died at the seaside resort of Scarborough, England, which was 
also the setting for both of her novels. She was buried at Saint 
Mary's Churchyard, Scarborough. She had been in Scarborough for 
only a few days, having been sent there in the hope of curing her 
tuberculosis — an illness from which her brother, Branwell, and 
three of her sisters had already died.
