Ellen Gregory, born 1891, died July 2, 1976, in Peasedown St. John, Bath, England, was a British Esperantist and author of original Esperanto verse for children. She learned the International Language before she was 20, and was active on its behalf for more than 65 years. She was a talented teacher, leading i.a. correspondence courses. Among her earliest and most successful pupils was her brother Mark Starr, an eminent figure in the international Esperanto movement, whom she taught as early as 1917. Under the pen name "Nenjo Rimanto" she brought out several Esperanto books for children. She also wrote the Christmas song "Cxe l' Kristofesto gxojas ni", one of the first such songs to be written originally in Esperanto.
Her works include ABC-rimoj por etuloj (1953), Ludiloj (1955), El Kornvalo (1958), Juveloj (1965), Rimoj por infanoj (1965), Versoj por infanoj (1966).
