The first convention of the Ladies' Land League was held in Dublin on January 16, 1881, with Anna Parnell presiding. This organization played a vital role during the Land War, particularly when male leaders of the Land League were imprisoned. The convention established the League's structure and objectives, focusing on supporting tenant farmers' rights and resisting evictions. The Ladies' Land League demonstrated significant political agency and contributed substantially to the agrarian movement, advocating for social justice and land reform in Ireland.
