Martha Curnutt Casto : ウィキペディア英語版 | Martha Curnutt Casto Martha Curnutt Casto (1812 - 1887) was sentenced to five years in Missouri State Penitentiary, an all-male prison, in 1843 after murdering her brutally abusive husband, Noah Casto, with an ax while he slept in Barry County, Missouri. Her experience in the Penitentiary roused enough support from political figures in the state to petition for her pardon, which was granted in 1844. The incident drew attention to the fact that an all-female prison was necessary. ==Early life== Martha was born about 1812 in Tennessee, the daughter of John Curnutt. On July 6, 1839, she married Noah Casto in Cole County, Missouri.〔Ancestry.com. Cole County, Missouri Marriages: 1821-51 (on-line ). Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2001.

Martha and Noah had two children together, a daughter named Mary and a son Noah, born about 1840 and 1842 respectively.
