Jane Bewick (1787–1881) was the eldest daughter of Isabella and wood-engraver Thomas Bewick. She edited her father's biography and supervised his works. She and her sister Isabella Bewick agreed that the Bewick engravings, blocks and papers should be donated to institutions including the British Museum.
