14 September 1975 Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton was canonized by Pope Paul VI. Inspired by the words of the first stanza of a well known hymn, ("Jerusalem, my happy home"), Elizabeth Seton, at her daughter Anna Marie's deathbed, added original stanzas and wrote what she termed a music of her own from them. Possibly Seton was the first American-born woman to have an original hymn tune published. Elizabeth Ann Seton , article from Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Ann_Seton
