Jean Middlemass

Mary Jane (Jean) Middlemass (14 July 1833 – 4 November 1919) was an English novelist at the turn of the 20th-century.

Middlemass was the daughter of Robert Hume Middlemass (of the Westbarns of Haddington[1]), and Mary Porter in Marylebone, London, England.

Her first works were published under the pseudonym Mignionette, by her father in 1851.[2][3] She published prolifically from the 1870s through to when her last book was published in 1910,[4] and was one of the authors of the collaborative work The Fate of Fenella.[5]
