Anne Marsh-Caldwell (née Caldwell; 9 January 1791 – 5 October 1874) was an English novelist, popular during the Victorian era.
Caldwell was the third daughter and fourth child of James Caldwell, J.P., of Linley Wood, Talke, Staffordshire, who was recorder of Newcastle-under-Lyme, and deputy-lieutenant of the county; her mother was Elizabeth, daughter and coheiress of Thomas Stamford of Derby.
Recognised as didactic in character, her books were published anonymously and mainly describe life in the upper middle class and the lower ranks of the aristocracy.
Marsh wrote also The Protestant Reformation in France and the Huguenots (1847), and a translation of the Song of Roland, as chanted before the Battle of Hastings by the minstrel Taillefer (1854).
[2] Marsh has been wrongly credited with novels written by Julia Cecilia Stretton (1812–1878), such as Margaret and her Bridesmaids.
