Caroline Norton

Caroline Elizabeth Sarah Norton (née Sheridan; ) adalah seorang reformator sosial dan penulis asal Inggris yang aktif pada awal dan pertengahan abad kesembilan belas.Perkin pp. 26–28 Caroline berpisah dengan suaminya pada 1836, setelah suaminya menggugat teman dekatnya Lord Melbourne, saat itu Perdana Menteri dari Partai Whig atas gugatan tindakan kriminal (seperti perzinahan). Hakim tak meloloskan klaim tersebut, tetapi Caroline tak dapat bercerai dan tak dapat menemui lagi tiga putranya. Kampanye yang dilakukan Caroline berujung pada pengesahan Custody of Infants Act 1839, Matrimonial Causes Act 1857 dan Married Women's Property Act 1870. Caroline ditampilkan pada fresko Justice di Dewan Bangsawan Britania Raya oleh Daniel Maclise, yang memilihnya karena dia dipandang oleh beberapa orang sebagai korban ketidakadilan yang terkenal.
