Yes. In the book version of The Wizard of Oz, author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 5, 1919] makes Glinda one of two good witches. Glinda is the Good Witch of the South, and an older lady, who is nameless in the book but named Locasta in the 1902/1903 play version, is the Good Witch of the North. The 1939 film version of the book consolidates Glinda the Good Witch of the South, and the Good Witch of the North, into one person ka Glinda the Good Witch of the North.

Is there a witch from the south in 'The Wizard of Oz'?

Yes, Glinda is the Good Witch of the South in the original 1900 book edition of "The Wizard of Oz."In the book, Glinda is not the first witch that Dorothy Gale and her pet dog Toto meet in the beautiful, enchanted, magical lands of Oz. Instead, it is the nameless, elderly Good Witch of the North. In the beloved 1939 movie version, the position descriptions of the Good Witch of the North and the Good Witch of the South are merged into one. That one person is named Glinda. That one part of Oz land over which she rules is the North. The South goes unmentioned in the movie, just as does Glinda's nameless, good colleague of the book version.
