Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Hewitt
(Born: December 23, 1807 - Died: October 9, 1894)
American poet. Mary Elizabeth Moore was born in Malden, MA. Her father was a farmer, who died when Mary was only three years old. Unable to maintain the farm alone, her mother moved to Boston, where Mary spent her childhood. About 1827, she married James L. Hewitt, the brother of John Hill Hewitt. After the death of her husband, she married Russell Stebbins in 1854.
Some of her earliest work appears in the page of the Knickerbocker magazine, under the pseudonyms “Ione” and “Jane.”
