Catherine Seton may have been the first American woman to enter the Sisters of Mercy in New York, but she was not the first American woman to join the congregation. Three years before Mother Agnes O'Connor went to NYC, Mother Frances Warde founded the first American congregation of the Sisters of Mercy in Pittsburgh in December of 1843. Eliza Jane Tiernan joined the Sisters of Mercy in January 1844, taking the name Sister Xavier. She died in 1848 during a typhus epidemic in Pittsburgh while nursing patients with the disease. (See "Frances Warde: American founder of the Sisters of Mercy," 1973, by Sister Kathleen Healy.) RC0128 (talk) 18:27, 18 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
