Elizabeth Strutt (1782–1867;[1] fl. 1805–1863[2]), also or previously known as Elizabeth Byron, was an English writer and traveller.[2] She was the wife of Jacob George Strutt and mother of Arthur John Strutt, and an acquaintance and critic of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, whom she describes as having written "two of the most absurd and the most unpleasing sonnets in the English language".[1][3] In the 1820s and 1830s she travelled in France and Switzerland, living for a time at Lausanne, and later with her husband and son moved to Rome.
