Reverend Lewis Page Mercier (9 January 1820 – 2 November 1875)[1] is known today as the translator, along with Eleanor Elizabeth King, of three of the best-known novels of Jules Verne: Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas,[2]From the Earth to the Moon, and Around the Moon. To avoid a conflict of interest with his position as chaplain, Mercier wrote under the pen names of Louis Mercier, MA (Oxon) and Mercier Lewis.[3]

We note that only for the last book, 1874 (after his dismissal), does he use his real name. (...) Mercier, like other Victorian clergymen who did translating work, was drawing a salary from an agent of the crown. It was not then, nor now, allowable to trade on one's official position for outside business purposes.
