Who they were
At Rome, St. Lucina, a disciple of the Apostles. She disposed of her goods for the needs of the saints, visited the Christians in prison, and took care of the burial of the martyrs. She was buried in a tomb she herself had built near their graves.
The miracles
There was never a formal cause: she has been honoured as a saint since before the Church's formal processes began.
Why that counted as sanctity
The Dominican Martyrology (1955) remembers her on 30 June.
