The Regina Coeli Orphanage was founded by Mother (Frances Xavier) Cabrini, 1850-1916, the patron saint of immigrants and the first American citizen to be named a Roman Catholic saint. Prior to being an orphanage, the property was owned by department store founder Joseph W. Robinson and his wife Julie Barnum and known as Edgemont. The site was later redeveloped as an apartment complex.
