Samuel Ferguson

Samuel Ferguson (March 10, 1810 ? August 9, 1886) was an Irish poet, barrister, antiquarian and public servant. Perhaps the most important Anglo-Irish poet of the 19th century, because of his interest in Irish mythology and early Irish history he can be seen as a forerunner of W. B. Yeats and the other poets of the Celtic Twilight.
