Mary E. Ireland (née, Haines; pen name, Marie Norman; January 9, 1834 – October 29, 1927) was an American author and translator. Born in Maryland, she lived a busy life in Washington, D.C., looking upon her literary labors as a recreation. Though she is remembered as "the poetess of Cecil County", she commenced to write poetry comparatively late in life, and not until she had attained distinction as a writer of prose. From 1895 through 1918, she wrote many popular books for young people, besides being the author of stories, poems, and essays. Her works appeared in the Cecil Whig, Scribner's Magazine, Oxford Press, Arthur's Magazine, Cottage Hearth, Household, Literary World, Ladies' Cabinet, and Woman's Journal. Her most popular work was Timothy and his friends. She translated from German the works of Bertha Clément (1852-1930), Elisabeth Philippine Karoline von Dewitz (1820-1899), Nikolaus Fries (1823-1894), Elizabeth Halden (pseudonym of Agnes Breitzmann), John J. Messmer, Karl Gustav Nieritz (1795-1876), Otto Nietschmann (1840-1929), Emmy von Rhoden (pseudonym of Emilie Auguste Karoline Henriette Friedrich-Friedrich), Richard Roth, and Emma Seifert.
