Dorota of Matowy aka Dorothy of Montau (1347-'94) - Born at (Gross) Montau, Prussia, on February 6, she married a wealthy swordsmith, Albrecht od Danzig, when she was seventeen, and the couple had 9 children. Her gentleness and humility completely changed the outlook of the surly Al, and he accompanied her on various pilgrimages. He was not able to accompany her to Rome in 1390 because of illness; on her return she found he had died in her absence. She moved to Marienwerder (Kwidzyń city) in 1391, and two years later established her hermitage there, where she died on June 25. She was noted for her visions and her devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, and though never canonized, is considered a patroness of Prussia. October 30.
