She ascribed it to her grandmother Adriana Porter, and claimed that the earlier published text was distorted from "its original form".
Its attribution to Porter may have formed part of Thompson's claim to be an hereditary witch.

 Wicca 101 - The Wiccan Rede   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The Wiccan Rede is a beautiful poem written by Adriana Porter and first published in the Green Egg magazine Vol.
Many versions of the Rede exist in different traditions, but this is the first version to take such a public debut and the Wiccan community owes a lot to Adriana and her daughter Lady Gwen for sharing this with us.
Here we present three versions of the Rede: the long version is a variation on Adriana Porters 28 line poem that keeps very close to the original in terms of message, the short version and the shortest version include some commentary that attempts to give some context to the rede itself.

 Blue Moon: Wiccan Rede
Some Wiccans believe that it was written circa 1910 CE by Adriana Porter.
Others suggest that it was created during the very early years of Gardnerian Witchcraft, during the 1940s and 1950s.
This version of the rede was published in Green Egg Magazine Vol III #69 by Lady Gwen Thompson as received by her Grandmother Adriana Porter in 1946.

It is attributed to Lady Gwen Thompson, who attributes it to her Grandmother, Adriana Porter.
Since Porter died in 1946 we may infer that the Rede is older than that.
It is frequently credited to Doreen Valiente, and as soon as I dig up my copy of The Rebirth of Witchcraft, I'll update the page to indicate whether she makes the claim herself.

who claims it was taught to her by her grandmother, Adriana Porter.
And again, if Porter wrote it (or passed it on) she would have to have done so prior to her death in 1943.
I am not sure the above version is exact to either of those versions or has been further modified.

Most of ‘em think there's a long poem called The Wiccan Rede written by Doreen Valiente that ends with the 8-word couplet we think of as the Rede...
In 1975 Lady Gwen Thomson published a poem called The Rede of the Wiccae, which she claimed was handed down to her from (or possibly written by) her paternal grandmother, Adriana Porter, who died in 1946.
Presumably, the poem was written before that date.

 Wiccanway's Book Of Shadows
The Wiccan Rede first appeared in print in 1975 in Green Egg, (Vol.
viii, No. 69) in an article by Gwen Thompson entitled "Wiccan-Pagan Potpourri." She attributed her Tradition's version of the Rede to her paternal grandmother, Adriana Porter, "who was well into her 90's when she crossed over into the Summerlands in 1946."
Gwen's family tradition was handed down through many generations and blended with popular occultism to the present form she named NECTW.

 Part 3 The Wiccan Rede   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
This will raise the question: If the passing of Adriana Porter came before the publishing of Gardner's first book containing elements of witchcraft ritual (High Magic's Aid, 1949) and after Gardner is said to have been initiated by "Old Dorothy Clutterbuck" in 1939, then could they share a common source?
Or could one have perhaps inspired the Rede from the other?
Since the tradition Lady Gwen taught is freely described as an adaptation of her hereditary tradition it is quite possible that Valiente's Rede influenced some of the rewording of Adriana Porter's poem, perhaps even unconsciously doing so.
