Biography

Blessed Maria Adeodata Pisani, also known as Maria Adeodata and Teresa Pisani, was born on 29 December 1806 in Naples, Italy. She was the daughter of Baron Benedict Pisani Mompalao Cuzker and Vincenza Carrano. Unfortunately, her father, who was a rich, noble, Maltese man, struggled with alcoholism, which led to Maria being raised by her grandmother for most of her childhood.
