Ewing, Juliana Horatia Orr (1841–1885)

English writer. She wrote for children; among her stories are Mrs Overtheway 1869, The Brownies and Other Tales 1870, Old Fashioned Fairy Tales 1882, Snapdragon and Old Father Christmas 1888, and Verses for Children 1888.

Born in Ecclesfield, Yorkshire, Ewing was the daughter of Margaret Gatty (1809–1873), to whose Aunt Judy's Magazine she largely contributed. She married a Major Ewing 1867 and so acquired her interest in the army, as exemplified in many of her tales.
