==Life==
Maria Charlesworth was the daughter of John Charlesworth (1782-1864), an Evangelical clergyman who was rector of Flowton when Maria was born and later rector of a London parish.
A visitor in her father's parish from a young age, Maria Charlesworth drew on her experiences for ''The Female Visitor to the Poor'' (1846), as well as the fictionalised ''Ministering Children'' (1854). ''Ministering Children'', set in a town modelled on Ipswich, sold over 170,000 copies during her lifetime – designed to teach children by example, it was especially popular as a 'reward book' for Sunday school prizes – and was translated into French, German and Swedish.〔'Charlesworth, Maria Louisa', in Louise Shattock, ''The Oxford Guide to British Women Writers'', p. 99〕
On her father's death in 1864 Maria Charlesworth lived for a while with her clergyman brother in Limehouse and then sent up a ragged school and a mission in Bermondsey.〔 She retired to Nutfield in Surrey, where she died on 16 October 1880.
