Margaret Brent (c. 1601 – c. 1671), was an English immigrant to the Colony of Maryland, settled in its new capitol, St. Mary's City, Maryland. She was the first woman in the English North American colonies to appear before a court of the common law. She was a significant founding settler in the early histories of the colonies of Maryland and Virginia. Leonard Calvert, Governor of the Maryland Colony, appointed her as the executrix of his estate in 1647, at a time of political turmoil and risk to the future of the settlement. She helped ensure soldiers were paid and given food to keep their loyalty to the colony, thereby very likely having saved the colony from violent mutiny, although her actions were taken negatively by the absentee colonial proprietor in England, Cecil Calvert, the secon

  • Margaret Brent, född 1601, död 1671, var en engelsk markägare i Virginia. Hon är känd för den politiskt inflytelserika roll hon spelade i Maryland under ett interregnum 1647–1650. Hon var dotter till Richard Brent och syster till Giles Brent och Ann Brent. Hennes syster gifte sig med Marylands guvernör Leonard Calvert. När hennes svåger avled 1647, utnämnde han sin svägerska Margaret Brent (som var ogift och därmed myndig) till sin testamentsexekutor med instruktionen att använda hans pengar för kolonins bästa. I denna ställning fick hon kontroll över en stor förmögenhet och hamnade i en position av auktoritet som den lagliga representanten för Lord Baltimore. (sv)
