There are three siblings sharing the name "Febronia Cissell." Mary Jane Cissell (1824-1842) took the name Sister Febronia when she entered the Sisters of Loretto in 1840. Her younger sister Mary Ann Cissell (1828-1888) also took the name Sister Febronia, entering Loretto in 1849. Their youngest sibling baptized Febronia Cissell (1847-1905), took the name Sister Parmena when she entered Loretto in 1876. Two of their other sisters also joined Loretto, Elizabeth Cissell (Sister Ambrosia; 1838-1913) and Amanda Ann Cissell (Sister Prudentia; 1846-1873).
