She is famous for doing something for the country, but I think she is famous in her own right. I checked and there is a Memorial Association dedicated to her. Also, to clarify her age, she lived into the 1800's.

My person was female.
The book is a nonfiction biography.
She lived in both the 1700's-1800's.
She was not royalty.
She lived in USA.
She was well-known in her own right, and there is a Memorial Association in her name.
Would the character be Dolly Madison ?

Good guesses, but she's wasn't Dolly Madison and the book wasn't Abigail Adams.
