Elizabeth Akers Allen (pen name, Florence Percy; October 9, 1832 – August 7, 1911) was an American poet and journalist. Her early poems appeared over the signature of "Florence Percy", and many of them were first published in the Portland Transcript. She came to Portland, Maine in 1855, and a volume of her fugitive poems appeared in that city just before her marriage to sculptor Paul Akers, whom she accompanied to Italy, and buried there. For several years, she was on the editorial staff of the Portland Advertiser. She wrote for many leading magazines, and several editions of her collected poems were published. She later resided in Ridgewood, New Jersey for several years. (From Wikipedia)
