Fanny Mary Katherine Bulkeley-Owen (1845 – 25 November 1927) was a British historian and author.

Bulkeley-Owen was the only daughter of John Ormsby-Gore, 1st Baron Harlech. She displayed a keen interest in researching Welsh cultural movements, and wrote a memorandum on the history of Maelor Saesneg for the Welsh Land Commission in 1894. She was awarded the bardic title of Gwenrhian Gwynedd.

In 1897, Bulkeley-Owen published a history of the parish of Selattyn, which includes the family estate of Brogyntyn. She died in Shrewsbury in 1927.

The National Library of Wales is in possession of a letter written by Lord Harlech to her, dated 9 December 1906.
