She was the third and youngest child of Edward William and his wife Mary Spring O'Brien, her elder siblings were Dermod and Nelly. Her paternal grandfather was William Smith O'Brien, and maternal cousin was Mary Spring Rice. O'Brien was educated at home. Following the death of her mother from tuberculosis, the three siblings were raised by their aunt, Charlotte Grace O'Brien.[1][2][3] In 1894, she married a childhood friend of her brother, barrister and administrator Arthur Beresford Cane. The couple had two daughters. O'Brien joined the Voluntary Aid Detachment of the British Red Cross, serving at the headquarters from 1914 to 1917 under Katharine Furse. She eventually moved to England and became the VAD assistant director, and retired in 1919 with a CBE. She died in London on 23 April 1926.[1] Some of her correspondence is held along with that of her family in the National Library of Ireland.[4] Katharine Furse's husband, Charles Wellington Furse painted a portrait of Cane.[5] References1. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Hawkins|first1=Richard|editor1-last=McGuire|editor1-first=James|editor2-last=Quinn|editor2-first=James|title=Dictionary of Irish Biography|date=2009|publisher=Cambridge University Press|location=Cambridge|chapter=Cane, (Lucy) Mary}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Cane, Lucy}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Doyle|first1=Caramel|editor1-last=McGuire|editor1-first=James|editor2-last=Quinn|editor2-first=James|title=Dictionary of Irish Biography|date=2009|publisher=Cambridge University Press|location=Cambridge|chapter=O'Brien, Ellen Lucy ('Nelly')}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Lucy Mary O'Brien |url=http://www.thepeerage.com/p48351.htm |website=The Peerage |accessdate=11 September 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |title=Papers of the Family of O'Brien of Cahirmoyle, Co.
