477 - Marie LAFARGE, known as Madame Lafarge. Marie Aimée Fortunée Capelle (1816–1852) was the daughter of Baron Antoine Laurent Capelle, a lieutenant colonel in the Royal Artillery, and Caroline Fortunée Collard (daughter of Jacques Collard de Montjouy, a deputy from the Aisne department). On August 11, 1839, she married Charles Pouch-Lafarge, an ironmaster and mayor of Beyssac. She would become the subject of “The Lafarge Affair” after being found guilty of poisoning her husband.
