Manage episode 429451456 series 2505647
Mary Surratt is a woman whose name is forever entwined with one of America's most infamous events—the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. As the first woman executed by the U.S. government, Mary Surratt's story is one of intrigue, loyalty, and a controversial trial that continues to spark debate more than a century later.
We start by exploring Mary's early life, her marriage to John Surratt, Sr., and how the Surratt family became deeply involved in the Confederate cause during the Civil War. We'll take a closer look at her role as a boarding house owner in Washington, D.C., and how this seemingly mundane detail placed her at the heart of a deadly conspiracy.
