Mary Ann "Marian" Davis (21 August 1847 – 25 March 1904) was a literary assistant, editor, and compiler who worked for Ellen G. White for 25 years, making copies of the letter and manuscripts and helped her compile quotes that made up important books like The Desire of Ages. At an early age she followed her parents in becoming Sabbathkeeping Adventists. In 1868 Marian’s family moved to Battle Creek, Michigan, where they first became acquainted with James and Ellen White.
