    Overall: Highmore's primary occupation was that of a wife and mother. She seems to have composed verses at home, and the DNB explains that "Religious conviction led the conventionally modest Highmore to write publicly." She published a few short, witty occasional poems, but none are noted in the ESTC/ECCO. The DNB contends that she must have written more in MS form.
