St. Plautilla

St. Plautilla was a Roman widow, reputedly the mother of St. Flavia Domitilla and the wife of Emperor Vespasian, who was exiled by Emperor Domitian for being a Christian.  Plautilla was by some accounts baptized by Saint Peter and saw the martyrdom of Saint Paul.  Her daughter and brother and daughter were both martyred. Her feast is kept on May 20.
