William Edmondstoune Aytoun [21 June 1813 - 4 August 1865] was a Scottish lawyer, poet and novelist. Born in Edinburgh, he was the only son of Joan Keith and Roger Aytoun, a writer to the signet, and was related to Sir Robert Aytoun. To his mother, a woman of culture, he owed his early fondness for literature [including ballad poetry], his political sympathies, and his admiration for the House of Stuart.
