Emma Lilian Todd (1865–1937), originally from Washington, D.C and later New York City, was a self-taught inventor who grew up with a love for mechanical devices. The ''New York Times'' issue of November 28, 1909,〔http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9E02EFDC143EE033A2575BC2A9679D946897D6CF〕 identifies her as the first woman in the world to design airplanes, which she started in 1906 or earlier. In 1910, her latest design flew, test-piloted by Didier Masson.〔http://earlyaviators.com/etodd2.htm〕
== Childhood ==
Todd was born Washington, D.C. in 1865. The 1870 U.S. census lists her as "Lily," living with her mother Mary Todd and her sister Cora in the U.S. capital. Her father is not mentioned in the census, however. In the November 1909 issue of ''Woman's Home Companion'',〔http://www.philsp.com/homeville/fmi/t2262.htm〕 an autobiographical article mentions her grandfather (probably on her mother's side), from whom she inherited her mechanical and inventive talent.
