A Dictionary of Saintly Women/Adelaide (1)
St. Adelaide (1), June 9, 27, of Bergamo. Wife of St. Lupo, prince of that city, a virtuous ruler though a heathen. They had a daughter, St. Grata, who was the first of the three to become a Christian. He built a church, and was baptized there, with many of his subjects; he lived fifteen years more, and was buried in his church. Adelaide and Grata were widows for many years, and built several churches. Legend places the lives of these three saints in the time of Diocletian, but Henschenius, AA.SS., thinks it more likely that they lived in the 7th, 8th, or 9th century. The mother and daughter are commemorated together June 9; and separately, Adelaide, June 27; and Grata, Aug. 25.
