Mary Ward (scientist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mary Ward (scientist)
Mary Ward (27 April 1827 – 31 August 1869) was an Anglo-Irish amateur scientist who was killed when she fell under the wheels of an experimental steam car built by her cousins. As the event occurred in 1869, she was the world's first person known to be killed by a motor vehicle. ==Early life== During the 19th century, when most women had little encouragement for a science education, Mary was unusual. She was born Mary King in present-day Ferbane, County Offaly on 27 April 1827, the youngest child of Henry and Harriett King. She and her sisters were educated at home, as were most girls at the time. However, her education was slightly different from the norm because she was of a renowned scientific family. She was interested in nature from an early age, and by the time she was three years old she was collecting insects.
