1821: The first native-born American saint, Elizabeth Ann Seton, dies in Emmitsburg, Md. Seton established the nation's first Catholic school in Emmitsburg, where she also founded the first American congregation of Religious Sisters, the Sisters of Charity. She would be canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1975.
