Madame Boudray (fl. 1796), was a French militant Jacobin active during the French Revolution. [1]

She was appointed secretary of the Société fraternelle des patriotes de l'un et l'autre sexe in 1791.

She was the owner and manager of the popular café Bains-Chinois in Paris, which was a gathering place for the Jacobins. The Babeuvists used her café as a base, and she was likely the only female member of the Babeuf Conspiracy of the Equals, which resulted in her arrest in 1796.
