The FIRST American-born Catholic martyrs were Maura Clark, Ita Ford, Jean Donovan, & Dorothy Kazel.  They died on December 2, 1980.

No matter what the Vatican clerics say or do, Stanley Rother, who died on July 28, 1981, was the FIFTH American-born Catholic martyr.

And we all know why the Vatican clerics are pretending that Rother was first, before these four women who actually. Were. First.
