Elizabeth Ann Bayley was born into a prominent Episcopalian family in New York City in 1774. She married William Magee Seton in 1794, becoming a mother to five children. After William's business collapsed and he died from tuberculosis in Italy, Elizabeth found solace in Catholicism, converting in 1805. Her faith led her to establish the first free Catholic school for girls in the United States and to found the Sisters of Charity, the first American religious congregation for women.
