Summary/Abstract: Maria Clementina Sobieska (1701–1735) was the granddaughter of King Jan III. In 1718 she was assigned to James III Stuart. Stopped in Innsbruck, she ran away and married her chosen one. She bore him two sons, Charles Edward and Henry Benedict. The spouses settled in Rome in the Palazzo del Re, under the care and at the expense of the Pope. In 1725 Maria Clementina proposed against taking her custody of her sons and moved to a convent. Using international support, she forced James Stuart to make concessions and returned home. After her premature death, the family undertook steps that were to lead to her beatification. A preliminary trial was initiated in which Mary Clementine was called the God’s Servant.
