Marie Rose Ferron

Marie Rose Ferron (24 May 1902 – 1936) often called the Little Rose was an American-Canadian Roman Catholic mystic and stigmatist.[1][2]

She was born in Saint-Germain-de-Grantham, Quebec, as the tenth child of a large family which moved to Massachusetts 1906 and then to Woonsocket, Rhode Island in 1925, where she lived the rest of her life. Her stigmata (including a crown of thorns) were repeatedly photographed and she is considered the first American stigmatist.[3][4]
