Mary Ann McCracken campaigned against slavery at Belfast docks until she was almost 90 years-old.
The abolitionist, better known as United Irishman Henry Joy s favourite sister, would warn emigrants headed to America about the slave trade there.
A foundation established in her name aims to celebrate her as a campaigner, separate from her brother.
The Mary Ann McCracken Foundation was launched by the Belfast Charitable Society this week.
It will also link her legacy to current issues.
