Jane Lockett (27 August 1847 – 14 November 1890), better known as Jeannie Lockett, was an Australian feminist and schoolteacher. Her articles on women's social and political issues, including divorce, were published in England in the 1880s. She also wrote short stories and non-fiction for the Australian press, sometimes as Jennie Lockett or Jeannie Leckett or Beattie. Her novel, Judith Grant, was published posthumously.
