Lafayette, Marie Adrienne de Noailles, marquise de, 1759-1807
Born Marie Adrienne Françoise de Noailles; married the marquis de Lafayette (1757-1834) in 1774. Although they were influential supporters of the new French republic, the Lafayettes opposed the extremists who came to power in 1792. While her husband was forced into exile, the marquise was imprisoned twice. After her second arrest in October 1793, George Washington intervened in her case, but she was not released until 1795.
