'''Jane Holmes Dixon''' (born '''Jane Hart Holmes'''; July 24, 1937 – December 25, 2012) was an American [[bishop]] of the [[Episcopal Church in the United States of America|Episcopal Church]]. She was a [[suffragan bishop]] in the [[Episcopal Diocese of Washington]] and served as Bishop of Washington ''pro tempore'' from 2001 to June 2002.<ref>Broadway C8.</ref> She was the second woman consecrated as a bishop in the Episcopal Church.<ref>Hein 143.</ref> She died unexpectedly in her sleep in her home in the [[Cathedral Heights]] section of Washington, DC on Christmas Day morning in 2012.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.edow.org/news/articles/2012/12/25/death-of-bishop-jane-holmes-dixon |title=Death of Bishop Jane Holmes Dixon |publisher=Edow.org |date= |accessdate=2012-12-27 |archive-date=2013-05-28 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130528140815/http://www.edow.org/news/articles/2012/12/25/death-of-bishop-jane-holmes-dixon |url-status=dead }}</ref>
==Personal life==
Dixon was born in [[Winona, Mississippi]] in 1937 and was educated locally. After graduating from [[Vanderbilt University]], she married and had three children. She also worked as a teacher.
==Theological education==
Dixon enrolled at [[Virginia Theological Seminary]] at the age of 40, receiving her Master of Divinity degree in 1982. She was ordained that year. She later received the degree of Doctor of Divinity in 1993.
==As Suffragan Bishop of Washington==
During her tenure as the assisting or [[suffragan bishop]] of the [[Episcopal Diocese of Washington]], Dixon insisted on making official visits to all parishes in the diocese. It had previously been understood that she would not visit those that objected to the [[Ordination of women in the Anglican Communion|ordination of women]] as priests. (The Episcopal Convention of the United States approved the ordination of women as priests in 1976.)
The rector of one such parish, [[Arthur E. Woolley|Arthur E Woolley]], wrote to her: "As long as I am rector of St. Luke's, [[Bladensburg, Maryland|Bladensburg]], no woman bishop or priest will be permitted to minister in this cure." He described his congregation as "very diverse, drawing members from the [[Anglican Church of Bermuda|Caribbean]], [[Church of India, Burma and Ceylon|India]] and [[Anglican Church of Nigeria|Africa]], where they worshiped in the conservative [[Anglicanism|Anglican]] tradition."<ref name="broadway">{{cite news |last1=Broadway |first1=Bill |title=Pariah in the Pulpit |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/local/1996/01/13/pariah-in-the-parish-pulpit/d39fc74b-8363-474a-960f-c98473244953/ |access-date=20 July 2023 |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=13 Jan 1996}}</ref> The senior warden of the parish said in an interview, "They're certainly not going to change our view, and we're not going to change theirs, so why not leave us alone and let us worship in peace? Don't be arrogant or mean-spirited..."<ref name="broadway"/>
When Bishop Dixon made her official visit, she brought 45 supporters with her, joined by nine of St. Luke's parishioners, while the rector absented himself.<ref>{{cite news |title=Parishioners shun visit by female Episcopal bishop |url=https://religionnews.com/1996/01/18/national-religion-report3/ |access-date=20 July 2023 |publisher=National Religion Report |date=18 Jan 1996}}</ref> In 2011, St. Luke's parish left the Episcopal Church for the Roman Catholic church, which does not ordain women as priests.<ref>{{cite news |title=Episcopal parish in Bladensburg converts to Roman Catholic Church |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/episcopal-parish-in-bladensburg-converts-to-roman-catholic-church/2011/10/09/gIQACMAfYL_story.html |access-date=20 July 2023 |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=9 Oct 2011}}</ref>
==As Bishop of Washington ''pro tempore''==
During her tenure as bishop ''pro tempore'', Dixon sued in federal court to remove a priest, Samuel Edwards, from his position as a [[Rector (ecclesiastical)|parish rector]] of [[Christ Church (Accokeek, Maryland)|Christ Church]] in [[Accokeek, Maryland]].<ref>Fahrenthold B4.</ref> She had refused to approve Edwards's appointment early in 2001, since Edwards opposed the Episcopal Church's beliefs about female and homosexual clergy. Following several months of acrimony, Dixon filed suit to have Edwards removed. The court ruled in her favor in October 2001. After several appeals, the initial decision stood. She retired following the election of the Right Rev. John B. Chane.

Jane Elizabeth Leeson was born in [[Wilford|Wilford, England]] in 1807<ref name=":1" /> or 1808<ref name=":0" /> and was christened on December 18, 1808, at [[St Mary's Church, Nottingham|St. Mary's Church]] in [[Nottingham]]. As an adult, Leeson converted to [[Catholic Church|Roman Catholicism]]. She died in [[Leamington Spa|Leamington, Warwickshire]] on November 18, 1881.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web |last=Congress |first=The Library of |title=Leeson, Jane Eliza - LC Linked Data Service: Authorities and Vocabularies - Library of Congress, from LC Linked Data Service: Authorities and Vocabularies (Library of Congress) |url=https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no00056444.html |access-date=2022-09-12 |website=id.loc.gov |archive-date=2022-03-27 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220327041716/https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no00056444.html |url-status=live }}</ref>
==Career==
Leeson was a prolific hymnwriter, publishing numerous collections of hymns during her lifetime. She also published translations of hymns from [[Latin]], including a version of "Christ The Lord is Risen Today" by [[Wipo of Burgundy]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Christ The Lord Is Risen Today (2) |url=https://www.blueletterbible.org/hymns/c/Christ_The_Lord_Is_Risen_Today_2.cfm |access-date=2022-09-12 |website=Blue Letter Bible |language=en |archive-date=2022-09-12 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220912164957/https://www.blueletterbible.org/hymns/c/Christ_The_Lord_Is_Risen_Today_2.cfm |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Christ the Lord is Risen Today |url=https://hymnary.org/text/christ_the_lord_is_risen_today_christian |access-date=2022-09-12 |website=Hymnary.org |language=en |archive-date=2022-03-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220314192629/https://hymnary.org/text/christ_the_lord_is_risen_today_christian |url-status=live }}</ref> Her various writings were nearly all poetical and designed for children. At her own request all her works were first published anonymously. One of her best pieces (included in leading hymnals in England and the U.S.) was, "Saviour! teach me, day by day". Her "Sweet the Lessons Jesus Taught," is characterized as being tender in expression, but it did not have the same popularity as "Saviour! teach me, day by day".<ref name="Smith1903">{{cite book |last1=Smith |first1=Nicholas |title=Songs from the Hearts of Women: One Hundred Famous Hymns and Their Writers |year=1903 |publisher=A.C.

'''Jeane Gardiner''' (died 26 May 1651 in [[Saint George]], [[Bermuda]]) was an [[Witch trials in the early modern period|alleged witch]]. She is one of the few people to have been executed for [[witchcraft]] in Bermuda.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Tan |first=Hsien |title=Witchcraft in Bermuda |url=https://wams.nyhistory.org/early-encounters/english-colonies/witchcraft-in-bermuda/ |access-date=2024-01-20 |website=Women & the American Story |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last= |date=2023-10-12 |title=A History of Witchcraft in Bermuda |url=https://www.thebermudian.com/history/history-history/a-history-of-witchcraft-in-bermuda/ |access-date=2024-01-20 |website=The Bermudian Magazine |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Witchcraft in Bermuda |url=http://sites.rootsweb.com/~bmuwgw/witches.htm |access-date=2024-01-20 |website=sites.rootsweb.com}}</ref>
Gardiner was the wife of Ralph Gardiner, and was put on trial by the [[Governor-general|Governor]], Captain Josias Forster. She was accused of affecting a woman with magic. She had threatened that she would cramp Tomasin, a [[mulatto]] woman, who was later struck [[Visual impairment|blind]] and dumb for two hours. Another woman, Anne Bowen, was tried with her.
Gardiner pleaded not guilty. A jury of women was appointed to search her body: Mrs. Ellen Burrowes, Mrs. Flora Wood, Mrs. Eliz. Stowe, Allice Sparkes, Eliz. Brangman. She was subjected to the [[ordeal of water]], and after being thrown twice in the sea, she floated and could not sink. As a result, she was judged guilty of witchcraft and was sentenced to death. She was executed on May 26, 1651. The fate of Anne Bowen is unknown.
In the period of 1651-1696, twenty-two [[Witch-hunt|witch trials]] were held in Bermuda, eighteen women and four men, of which five women and one man was executed. The trial against [[Sarah Basset]] (or Sally Basset) in 1730 is sometimes counted among them. Most of them were held in the 1650s when witch trials were common in [[England]]. The most common accusation was sickness afflicted upon [[Slavery in Britain|slaves]] by use of magic.

'''Jeanne II d'Anglure''' (died 1505), was a German-Roman monarch as [[Abbess of Remiremont|Princess Abbess]] of the Imperial [[Remiremont Abbey]] in France between 1474 and 1505.
She was made Dame Doyenne during the reign of [[Alix de Paroye]] in 1453–1473. After the death of Paroye, Catherine de Neufchatel was elected abbess, but never confirmed as such. Instead, Jeanne II was elected and installed in the office. During her reign, the nuns declared themselves canonesses without the pope's consent, did not take the vows and restricted membership to those proven to be of noble descent.
Jeanne II d'Anglure was also [[Dame (title)|Dame]] de [[Germainvilliers]].

'''Jessie Alexander''' {{post-nominals|country=NZL|MBE|size=85%}} (2 June 1876 – 27 March 1962) was a [[New Zealand]] [[Presbyterianism|Presbyterian]] [[deaconess]] and [[missionary]].
== Early life ==
Alexander was born in [[Brantford]], [[Ontario]], Canada, on 2 June 1876, to Mary Munro and William Alexander. Both her parents were Scottish.<ref name="DNZB Alexander">{{DNZB|title=Jessie Alexander|first=James|last=Veitch|id=4a7|access-date=23 April 2017}}</ref> Around 1877–1878, the family moved to [[Dunedin]], New Zealand, later relocating to [[Wairoa]], [[Hawke's Bay|Hawkes Bay]] around 1909.<ref name="DNZB Alexander" />
== Religious work ==
Alexander entered the Presbyterian Women's Training Institute in Dunedin in 1912. She was ordained Deaconess at the General Assembly of 1913, after two years of study.<ref name="DNZB Alexander" />
=== Nūhaka ===
As part of the Presbyterian Māori Mission, Alexander was posted as a missionary to [[Nūhaka]], near Wairoa. This was a challenging post as at this time most [[Māori people|Māori]] belonged to the [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints|Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints]]. She and her father moved to a house near the township of Nūhaka, using the kitchen of their home as a church. A [[Bible study (Christianity)|Bible study]] class and a popular weekly social group were established. Fellow missionaries Edith Walker and May Gardiner joined Alexander at the mission in 1914 and 1919 respectively; both were later ordained as deaconesses. Alexander studied the [[Māori language]], and gave medical care in the township until 1918 when her sister Lillian, a trained nurse, took over the brunt of the medical work. Following the [[Spanish flu|1918 influenza epidemic]], Alexander got the Māori Mission Committee to open a small [[cottage hospital]] in Nūhaka, which Lillian ran until 1922.<ref name="DNZB Alexander" />
=== Waikaremoana ===
In the winter, Nūhaka was cut off from Wairoa and its roads were inaccessible, so Alexander, Walker and Gardiner made horseback trips to [[Waikaremoana (New Zealand electorate)|Waikaremoana]], a 106-mile return journey. They were welcomed by Māori and [[Pākehā settlers|Pākehā]] alike in the area, and in 1921 Alexander and Gardiner accepted an invitation from Waikaremoana's Māori community to start missionary work there. A young women's group from John Knox Church in [[Rangiora]] raised funds for a cottage to be built there. Alexander and Gardiner commenced missionary work in Waikaremoana on the 14 December 1921. Local members of the [[Ringatū]] church were suspicious of this work until it became clear that the women were preaching the Bible rather than Presbyterianism. Alexander became respected as a healer, known for her high success rates and always beginning the treatment with a prayer. She resigned from the Waikaremoana mission in 1923 due to poor health and returned to Wairoa.<ref name="DNZB Alexander" />
=== Later work ===
Alexander moved to [[Taupō]] in 1925, but fell out with and was replaced by the Māori Mission Committee in late 1926. She did relief work until 1929, when she agreed start a mission in [[Ōpōtiki]]. She was the first Protestant missionary to live in Ōpōtiki since the [[Carl Sylvius Völkner|1865 killing of Carl Völkner]]. Before her 1934 resignation, she established two Sunday Schools, a day school and services in six different locations. She retired from the Māori Mission in 1936. In her retirement, she did deputation work for the church in [[Southland Region|Southland]] and worked with the [[Baptists|Baptist Church]] in [[Honolulu]], Hawaii. On her return to New Zealand she settled in [[Auckland]] and established hostels for young Māori looking for work in the city. She was a founding member of the United Māori Mission, taught Māori at the New Zealand Bible Institute and took regular services in Māori.<ref name="DNZB Alexander" />
In the [[1947 New Year Honours (New Zealand)|1947 New Year Honours]], Alexander was appointed a [[Order of the British Empire|Member of the Order of the British Empire]], for social welfare work with [[Māori people|Māori]] children.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue= 37836 |date=1 January 1947 |page=32 |supp=y }}</ref>
Alexander died in [[Auckland]] on 27 March 1962, and she was buried at Purewa Cemetery.<ref name="DNZB Alexander"/><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.purewa.co.nz/view/?id=22145 |title=Burial & cremation details |publisher=Purewa Cemetery and Crematorium |access-date=26 October 2018}}</ref>

'''Zhu Jingjian''' ({{zh|c=竺淨檢}}; 292–361) was a Chinese Buddhist nun, referred to as the first nun in China.<ref>Lily Xiao Hong Lee, Clara Lau, A.D. Stefanowska: ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=0oCsBwAAQBAJ&dq=L%C3%BCzhu&pg=PA321 Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Women: Antiquity Through Sui, 1600 B.C.E ]''</ref>
After having been widowed, she was active as a teacher in [[Luoyang]]. She became interested in Buddhism, and was instructed in the subject by the monk Fashi. In this time there were monks, but no nuns, in China. However, she, and a couple of other women after her, became learned in Buddhism and started to live as de facto nuns. In 357 she made her vows and from that year onward, she was referred to as a nun and as such a pioneer. She has been called the first Buddhist nun in China. However, as she and the nuns that followed during the 4th century was never formally ordained in accordance to the ''vinaya'' ritual, they were formally known as novices rather than fully ordained nuns, and it was not until [[Huiguo]] in the following century that nuns in China was formally recognized as such.
