Caroline Norton, also known as Lady Stirling-Maxwell, was a prominent English social reformer and successful author. She played a vital role in advocating for divorce and women’s rights, leading to the passing of important legislation like the Custody of Infants Act 1839, the Matrimonial Causes Act 1857, and the Married Women’s Property Act 1870.
