Although born in Montreal, Quebec, she was educated in New York City and at both the University of Edinburgh and St. Andrew's University in Scotland.[3] While in Edinburgh, she lived with her aunt.[4] She lived in Montreal from 1897 to 1903[5] until she finally settled down in Cumnor, near Oxford,[4] in 1911.[5] While there, she lived her life with her lesbian partner, Sophie Earp.[6] In Cumnor, she became the center of a group that was dedicated to thought and conversation.[4] This was similar in its views to that of her first essay, Pro Christo et Ecclesia (1900).[3][4] Her debut novel, Beggars All, was published in 1892 followed by nine other novels.[5] Her contemporaries thought her novels were "well-received" and they have "been widely read far from the shores of her native land".[7] She also did write a novel prior to Beggars All, Lovereen, A Canadian Novel, that was published under a male pseudonym.[1] She also published one volume of short stories and eight books of religious philosophy.[5] Four of Dougall's novels have Canadian settings spanning from western British Columbia to Eastern Quebec to Atlantic Prince Edward Island.[3] What Necessity Knows, The Zeitgeist, The Mermaid: A Love Tale and The Madonna of a Day: A Study.[4] Her fiction is characterized by twists of fate, disguise, hidden identity and disillusioned love.[3] More noteworthy, however, her work is known for its exploration of religious and philosophical themes.[5] Many of her protagonists are strong, independent females who are typically drawn to the idea of egalitarian marriage.[3] Works
