Hanging Mary

[RJNorton]

The Wikipedia article here says, "In the United States, authorities began housing women in correctional facilities separate from men in the 1870s."

The web page here says, "From petty thief to Lincoln assassination conspirator, if you were a criminal in Washington D.C. in the 1860's -- you were going to be sent up the river.

Way up the river. To Albany.

The Albany Penitentiary served for decades as the prison for the District of Columbia."

This is where Samuel Mudd, Michael O'Laughlen, Samuel Arnold, and Ned Spangler were originally told they were going. Of course that was later changed to Ft. Jefferson.

So would Mary have been sent to Albany?
