Donald of Ogilvy

St. Donald of Ogilvy, (also known as Donivald or Domhnall), was an eighth-century Scottish saint who lived at Ogilvy, in the former Forfarshire. Upon the death of his wife, Donald formed a religious group with his nine daughters (known as the Nine Maidens or the Holy Nine Virgins), who later entered a monastery in Abernethy after his death. Their feast day is July 15.
