Jeanne Dumée (1660 in Paris – 1706) was a French astronomer and the author of an astronomical text, Entretiens sur l’opinion de Copernic touchant la mobilité de la terre (Conversations on Copernicus’ Opinion on the Movement of the Earth). Dumée, born in Paris, was interested in astronomy since childhood. She married young and became a widow at age 17, when her husband died in battle in Germany at the head of a company he commanded. She was also known for her feminism, as she supported the idea that women were just as smart and useful in the science world as men were. Read more on Wikipedia
