  • Maria Webb (née Lamb; 6 August 1804 – 8 January 1873) was an Irish philanthropist, writer on religious and Quaker history. She was born to the Quaker family of Dorothy née Wright and her husband Thomas Lamb at Peartree Hill, near Lisburn, Belfast. She married William Webb on 21 August 1828, setting up home in Belfast where the couple had eleven children.

The Webb family relocated to Dublin in 1848 where in 1857 she published Annotations on Dr D'Aubigné's Sketch of the Early British Church, which argued for the importance of the Irish in the development of the early church in the British Isles. She next published The Fells of Swarthmoor Hall and their friends... (1865) and The Penns and the Peningtons of the seventeenth century...

Maria Webb died at Rathmines, Dublin. (en)
