St. Elizabeth Ann Seton<\/strong>, n\u00e9e\u00a0Elizabeth Ann Bayley<\/strong>, (born\u00a0August\u00a028, 1774, New York, New York [U.S.]\u2014died January 4, 1821,\u00a0Emmitsburg,\u00a0Maryland, U.S.; canonized 1975; feast day January 4), first native-born American to be\u00a0canonized\u00a0by the\u00a0Roman Catholic Church. She was the founder of the\u00a0<\/span>Sisters of Charity, the first American religious society.<\/p>

Elizabeth Bayley was the daughter of a distinguished physician. She devoted a good deal of time to working among the poor, and in 1797 she joined\u00a0<\/span>Isabella M. Graham\u00a0and others in founding the first charitable institution in\u00a0New York City, the Society for the Relief of Poor Widows with Small Children, serving as the organization\u2019s treasurer for seven years. She had married William M. Seton in 1794, and in 1803 they and the eldest of their five children traveled to\u00a0Italy\u00a0for his health. Nevertheless, in part perhaps as an aftereffect of his\u00a0bankruptcy\u00a0three years earlier, he died there of\u00a0tuberculosis\u00a0in\u00a0December.<\/p>

As a result of her experiences and acquaintances in Italy, Seton joined the\u00a0Roman Catholic Church\u00a0in New York City in 1805. Herself now a widow with small children, she found it difficult to earn a living, and many friends and relatives shunned her after her conversion (the various anti-Catholic laws of the colonial era had only recently been lifted). For a time she operated a small school for boys. In 1808 Seton accepted an invitation from the\u00a0priest\u00a0(later bishop) Louis William Dubourg, president of\u00a0St. Mary\u2019s\u00a0College in\u00a0Baltimore, Maryland, to open a school forCatholic girls in that city. Several young women joined in her work, and in 1809 her long-held hope to found\u00a0a religious community was realized when she and her companions took vows before\u00a0Archbishop\u00a0John Carroll\u00a0and became the\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sisters of St. Joseph, the first American-based Catholic sisterhood. A few months later Mother\u00a0Seton and the sisters moved their home and school to Emmitsburg, Maryland, where they provided free education for the poor girls of the parish\u2014an act later considered by many to be the beginning of Catholic\u00a0parochial education\u00a0in the United States.<\/p>

In 1812 the order became the Sisters of Charity of St. Joseph under a modification of the rule of the Sisters of Charity of\u00a0St. Vincent de Paul. Houses of the order were opened in\u00a0Philadelphia\u00a0in 1814 and in\u00a0New York City\u00a0in 1817. Mother Seton continued to teach and work for the community until her death in 1821, by which time the order had 20\u00a0communities. In 1856 Seton Hall College (now\u00a0<\/span>Seton Hall University) in\u00a0South Orange Village,\u00a0New Jersey, was named for her, and in 1885 the Sisters of Charity founded Seton Hill Junior College (now Seton Hill University) in\u00a0Greensburg, Pennsylvania, in her honour. She was\u00a0canonized\u00a0in September 1975.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
