Best Answer

The first St. Cecilia was a martyr of the 2nd Century, c. 117. It is uncertain exactly what day she was slain upon however, and the earliest documentation for her veneration give several dates including the 11th of August, the 16th of September (Which seems to be a burial date), and the date upon which her feast is universally celebrated, the 22nd of November.

ANSWER 2:

There are five different schools of thought about when Saint Cecilia died, although an exact date would be impossible to pinpoint because the "common era" calendar wasn't in use until 1582. The position of the tomb where her body is supposed to be in the martyrs Catacomb of Callistus is in the immediate proximity of the ancient crypt of the early popes. This suggests her burial would have to have been from the end of the second century to the middle of the third century.
We do not know the exact date but it as probably in the second century.
It is thought that Cecilia died in the early 2nd century but the date is unknown.
The dates are unkown. However, she was probably born late in the first century AD and died about the year 117.
The date is unknown. It was either in the second or third century.
Cecilia is thought to have died in the early 2nd century. The actual date is not known.
