Honoria Marshall Lawrence, Lady Lawrence (25 December 1808 – 15 January 1854)[1] was an Irish-born writer whose works, according to scholar Mary Ellis Gibson, "provide an intimate look at the domestic life of an Anglo-Indian woman during the first half of the nineteenth century".[2] She was the first European woman known to live in several parts of the Indian subcontinent, including Kashmir and Nepal.[1]
