Marie Catherine Laveau (September 10, 1801 – June 15, 1881)[1][2][nb 2] was a Louisiana Creole practitioner of Voodoo, herbalist and midwife who was renowned in New Orleans. Her daughter, Marie Laveau II (1827 – c. 1862), also practiced rootwork, conjure, Native American and African spiritualism as well as Louisiana Voodoo and traditional Roman Catholicism.[3] An alternate spelling of her name, Laveaux, is considered by historians to be from the original French spelling.[1]
