Margaret Murray Robertson (22 April 1823 – 14 February 1897) was a Scottish-born teacher and writer.

Excerpt
Saughleas was not a large estate, nor were the Dawsons gentlefolks, in the sense generally accepted in the countryside.
It was acknowledged that both the mother and the wife of the new laird had had good blood in their veins; but George Dawson himself, had been, and, in a sense, still was, a merchant in the High-street of Portie. He was banker and ship-owner as well, and valued the reputation which he had acquired as a business man, far more than he would ever be likely to value any honour paid to him as the Laird of Saughleas.
