No, she was not. It has always been believed that because it was her boarding house that was used as a meeting place for the conspirators, and since her son was involved in the plot, and John Wilkes Booth, and other co-conspirators met there she HAD to know of the assassination being planned.
Her claim to fame is that, since the nation's founding, she was the first woman ever executed by the Federal Government.
