Mary Ann (sometimes Mary-Anne) Browne was born in Maidenhead, Berkshire, 24 September 1812.^[1] She was the eldest of three children.{{sfn|Ashfield|1998|p=162}} Though some sources mention Felicia Hemans was her sister, that is not the case.{{sfn|Feldman|2000|p=154}}^[2]

Style and themes

Her writing evinced a mind which has derived its thoughts chiefly from secondary sources. Her style was always imitative, yet the pathos which usually belongs to her themes, and her mode Of treating them, was attractive and endearing.{{sfn|Virtue and Company|1875|p=548}}
