Charlotte Palmer (about 1762 – 1834 or after) was a British teacher and writer who was mentioned in the Dictionary of National Biography. She published a small number of novels. ==Life== Palmer is estimated to have been born in 1762 and she comes to notice with a five volume novel told as series of letters. It was called ''Female Stability; or the History of Miss Belville'' and it was published in 1780. This book is confusing because the preface says that it was written by "a sister" who has since died. Despite this comment there were three more works published during the 1790s. These books were ''Letters on several subjects from a preceptress to her pupils who have left school'' in 1791, and ''A Newly-Invented Copybook'' in 1797. Both of these were aimed at the educational market and the latter came with an apology from a woman to the "superior" gender of schoolteachers.〔Elizabeth Lee, ‘Palmer, Charlotte (b. c.1762, d. in or after 1834)’, rev. Rebecca Mills, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 (accessed 16 March 2015 )〕 Her two other works were ''Integrity and Content: an Allegory'' and intrigingly ''It is and it is not: a Novel'' which were both published in 1792. The latter has been included in ''The Novel: An Alternative History, 1600-1800'' which was published in 2002. Palmer continued to operate schools, but she was arrested for debt. In time she cleared this debt and she was last identified in 1834. Her death like her birth date is unknown.〔
