Trivia Time: Do You Know Who This Woman Was?

The Baldwin-Whitehall Patch has partnered with the Baldwin Historical Society to bring you a weekly trivia question that delves into our area's colorful past.

 and Patty Woehler, co-presidents of the society, will write the questions and provide the pictures.

Here is this week's question:

This woman (pictured), born in 1834, was a famous American vivandière (battlefield nurse) who also purchased tobacco and other goods to sell to soldiers during the Civil War.

She followed her husband to the war and endured over 13 battles.

During the Battle of Fredericksburg, she was wounded in the ankle by a rebel bullet while charging with her regiment. She received the Kearny Cross for bravery and also had a paper signed by President Abraham Lincoln attesting to her bravery.

In her later years, she was alone and in constant pain. In 1901, she committed suicide and is buried at St. Paul's Lutheran Cemetery in north , near where she lived.
