Jan Michiel Dautzenberg (December 6, 1808, Heerlen - February 4, 1869, Elsene), is the author of a volume of Volksliederen.

During his life he was occupied as teacher and bookkeeper, but his spare time he was a poet and a student of literature. In 1850 his first work appeared ‘’’Gedichten’’’ (Poems), and a literature study called ‘’’Beknopte Prosodia der Nederduitsche Taal’’’. Many poems, songs, and literature studies followed, including an ode to miners. In 1857, he, together with some friends, started the teachers-journal ‘’’de Toekomst’’’ (the future).

In the year of his death, his son-in-law, the poet Frans de Cort, published the work 'Verspreide en nagelaten Gedichten'. Fifthy odes to Horatius where found back in 1910 and subsequently published. Later still 70 letters, which where stored in the Platijn-Moretus-museum, Antwerp, where published.
