Helen Craik
Helen Craik (c. 1751 – 11 June 1825) was a Scottish poet and novelist, and a correspondent of Robert Burns. She praised Burns for being a "native genius, gay, unique and strong" in an introductory poem to his Glenriddell Manuscripts.〔''The Oxford Edition of the Works of Robert Burns''. Vol. I, ed. Nigel Leask (Oxford, UK: OUP, 2014), p. 404, note 390. (Retrieved 29 June 2015. )〕
==Early life==
Helen Craik was born at Arbigland, Kirkbean near Dumfries, probably in 1751, as one of the six legitimate children of William Craik (1703–1798), a politician and laird keen to improve a large estate of relatively poor land, and his wife Elizabeth (d. 1787), the daughter of William Stewart of New Abbey, also near Dumfries.
The naval captain John Paul Jones (1747–1792), who played a prominent part in founding the US navy, was also born at Arbigland. He was rumoured to be Helen Craik's father's illegitimate son.〔Adriana Craciun, "Craik, Helen (1751–1825)", ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford, UK: OUP, 2004 (Retrieved 29 June 2015. Pay-walled. )〕 Suppositions that one of her sisters was the novelist Catherine Cuthbertson have not been substantiated.〔Corvey "Adopt an Author": "Biography of Catherine Cuthbertson by Beryl Chaudhuri" (Retrieved 28 November 2015 ).〕 Craik was later to write an account of her father's life and agricultural innovations in the form of two letters to ''The Farmer's Magazine'', published in 1811.〔''The Farmer's Magazine'', June 1811, p. 145 ff. (Retrieved 29 June 2015. )〕
