Teresa Lalor, V.H.M. (born ca. 1769, County Laois, Ireland; d. 9 September 1846, Washington, D.C.)〔(Code, Joseph B., ''Great American Foundresses'', "Mother Teresa Lalor of the Georgetown Nuns of the Visitation", Read Books, 2007; ISBN 978-1-4067-6575-5, pp. 180-205 )〕〔(Mother Teresa Lalor (Irish-American religious leader) ) ''Britannica Online Encyclopedia''〕〔(Where did Mother Teresa Lalor die? ) Britannica Online Encyclopedia〕 was an Irish immigrant to the United States, and a nun, co-foundress, with the Most Rev.

==Early life==
Christened Alice, she was born in County Laois, Ireland, the daughter of Denis and Catherine Lalor, but moved with her family to Ballyragget, Co Kilkenny as a child.〔〔(p.146. ), "A Story of Courage: Annals of the Georgetown Convent of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary"〕 Her childhood was spent in Ireland with her sisters.〔 At her request, John Lanigan, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Ossory, made arrangements for her entrance into a convent of his diocese which her family opposed. She however, instead agreed to accompany her sister, Mrs. Doran and her husband, an American merchant to America, during the winter of 1794. They arrived in America on 5 January 1795.〔〔(APPENDIX, I. ), "A Story of Courage: Annals of the Georgetown Convent of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary"〕〔"American Catholic Quarterly Review" Vol XI 1886 p. 34〕
Moving to Philadelphia in 1797, she became acquainted with Fr. Neale, then the pastor of St. Joseph's Church in that city, and under his direction she devoted herself to works of piety and charity with a small group of associates. The group went on to open an academy for the instruction of girls.
