Madeline Margaret Daniell (née Carter) (19 May 1832 – 21 April 1906) was a Scottish educationalist and campaigner for women's rights to higher education.
[1] Daniell was born on 19 May 1832 in Secrole, India to Helen Gray and Major Henry Carter, of the Bengali native infantry.
In the early years of the Association its president, Mary Crudelius, was often in poor health and Daniell undertook much of the work.
In its first year, the Association ran lectures for women on English literature given by the University of Edinburgh's Professor David Masson, and later held classes in physics and mental philosophy.
While in London she met the philosopher, writer and poet Constance Naden, and in 1887 travelled with her through Europe, Egypt and India.
