I’d have to say the early 1800’s, so maybe B

The correct answer is B) the early 1800s.

The Sisters of Charity began their programs in the early 1800s.

The Sisters of Charity were a Catholic congregation founded in Emmitsburg, Maryland in 1806. Elizabeth Ann Seton was one of the founders. Originally, the Daughters of Charity were founded in France, in the 1600s.

The Sisters performed charity acts in different regions of the United States but its role became prominent during the Civil War. They provided nursing services to wounded soldiers in the hospitals adapted in the battlefield and also helped prisoners of war.

one of the main reasons was definitely slavery. back in 1861, republican abraham lincoln was elected and ended up being a major influence in the slavery business. slavery greatly affected the texas economy because back in 1845 during the annexation of texas, slaves became a big part of the texas population. many texans that were in favor of the secession influenced groups through party ties.
