Who they were

Elvira Moragas Cantarero, in religion María Sagrario de San Luis Gonzaga (8 January 1881 – 15 August 1936), was a Spanish Catholic nun of the Discalced Carmelites. She was previously one of the first women to become a pharmacist, and her time in the convent saw her assume leadership roles before the Spanish Civil War forced her to go into hiding. She was captured and later shot dead after remaining silent during interrogations.
