Marguerite Agnes Power (1815–1867) was a British novelist, writer for periodicals, and editor throughout the majority of her life.
She is thought to have spent her childhood in Ireland where her father managed the estates in County Tyrone after he returned from a career in the British army.
However, her legacy remains within her many works including her contributions to The Keepsake, Book of Beauty and also to the Illustrated London News and other periodicals.
She is known for her memoir of her aunt Lady Blessington as well as her book Arabian Days and Nights (1863), which is an account of a winter's residence in Egypt.
