Margaret Cullen information


Margaret Cullen (1767—18 September 1837) was a Scottish novelist.

Cullen was born in Glasgow in 1767.[1] Cullen was born to Anna Johnston and the professor of medicine William Cullen.[1] Her sister Robina married John Craig Millar, the son of the philosopher John Millar and emigrated to the state of Pennsylvania in 1795.[1] Robina was a frequent correspondent of the physician and activist Benjamin Rush and wrote to him of the success of Cullen's novel Home. Rush replied to her that Home was being "universally read" in America.[2]

Cullen shared an annual government pension of £200 (equivalent to £30,186 in 2023) with her two sisters upon her father's death in 1790.[1] Cullen lived with her sisters for most her life in England.[1]

Cullen died in Ilfracombe, Devon, on 18 September 1837.[1]
