May Jane Walker Burleson - "Jennie" May Burleson (1888–1957) was a notable socialite, artist, and Texan suffragette who was the Grand Marshal of the Woman Suffrage Parade of 1913 in Washington, DC.[1][2] Mounted with confidence on her horse, she led a parade of 5,000 people up Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, DC and "into a melee that changed the direction of the suffrage movement."[3] During the 1930s her name was associated with scandal, attracting wide media attention in Texas, as she shot and killed the woman her husband married after their contentious divorce in 1938.[4]
