Mary was born in Jamaica. Mary was an entrepeeur, wait I mean entreprenuer (seriously such a hard word to spell, who came up with this word). Mary was also a doctress which means she learned how to heal people with medicines like her mom. Mary was never concerned with money and ony wanted to help others. She opened hotels for the sick or soldiers in many places. She even traveled all the way to Crimea to help during the Crimean war. Sadly for many years, the life of Mary Seacole was forgotten until her autobiography was rediscovered.
