Life
Martyr Maria Danilova (née Usacheva) was a believer of the Russian Orthodox Church who suffered under the Soviet regime and died in a camp in 1946. She was born at Yukhnov, into the family of a worker, a weaver.
On 16 November 1937 the Special Troika of the NKVD of the Yaroslavl region sentenced her to ten years in a labour camp, for taking part in a "counter-revolutionary church insurgent group". She died in the camp, in circumstances that remain unclear.
She was rehabilitated on 1 August 1956 by the Yaroslavl regional court. On 20 August 2000 the Bishops' Council of the Russian Orthodox Church numbered her among the New Martyrs and Confessors of Russia.
