Eliza Maria Harvey

Eliza Maria Harvey Jones (born Eliza Maria Harvey; December 24, 1838 – April 6, 1903) was a Canadian farmer, butter producer and writer at one time described as the "best known dairywoman on the continent".

In 1896, she sold half of her herd to a farmer in Prince Edward Island but continued to raise some cattle for her family's use. She also began to raise horses for racing or pulling carriages and wrote short stories for publication in the Farmer's Advocate.

One of Eliza's sons was millionaire Canadian industrialist Frank P. Jones, who established the Eliza M. Jones Scholarships at McGill University in honour of his mother's memory.
