It seems higly unlikey that there were any female samurai during the feudal days of Japan. Women were expected to stay home and take care of their families, to cook, to do all things considered femmenine. The only weapon they were allowed to use would be the naginata or a tanto if they had one handy. I really don't think you'll find any records of a female samurai but I wouldn't completely rule it out. There may have been one but again, highly unlikely.
