Julia Caroline (Ripley) Dorr (1825–1913) was an American author who published both prose and poetry. She was born at Charleston, South Carolina, but moved early in her life to New York City, then to Rutland, Vermont. There she married Hon. Seneca M. Dorr. Her half-brothers were Edward H. Ripley and William Y. W. Ripley, both prominent officers in the American Civil War. Her earliest published writings appeared in 1848.

Julia Caroline (Ripley) Dorr was born on February 13, 1825 in Charleston, South Carolina, United States. Her father, William Young Ripley, born in Vermont, was living in Charleston as a merchant when he married Zulma DeLacy Thomas, who, with her parents, natives of France resident in the West Indies, had come to South Carolina to escape negro insurrection.
Dorr's education was somewhat irregular although she acquired some proficiency in Latin.
In 1837, William Ripley took up residence permanently in Rutland, where he operated a lucrative business in marble.
There his daughter also spent, but for one interlude, the remainder of her tranquil, comfortable existence.
From the age of twelve Dorr had written verse, but none of it was made public until her husband soon after their marriage permitted specimens of it without her knowledge to be published in a magazine.
Her first three books, Farmingdale (1854), Lanmere (1856), and Sybil Huntington (1869), all novels, were published under the name Caroline Thomas.
She wrote also in prose, Bride and Bridegroom (1873), a book of sentimental advice to young married couples, and three books of travel, Bermuda (1884), “The Flower of England’s Face” (1893), and A Cathedral Pilgrimage (1896).
As a poet—deliberately shunning, it is said, all expressions which she could not with propriety read to children—she gave utterance in respectable but not highly distinguished or passionate phrases to the conventional wisdom of her time and place.
Among her other novels were, Expiation (1873), and In Kings’ Houses (1898), a story of England under Queen Anne.
She was most widely known for her verse, however, of which there were published certainly as many as ten volumes, beginning with Poems (1872), including Poems .
Complete Edition , and ending with Last Poems (1913).
