Hilaria 1 was the sister of Symeon 13 and Georgios 135; she lived in tiny accommodation as a nun close to the shrine of St John the Evangelist (at Mitylene, on Lesbos); she received the tonsure from Symeon 13 and was cared for by Georgios 135 (διακονουμένη); she received a visit from Georgios 135 and sent him to Symeon 13 to have his nose healed: Acta Davidis, Symeonis et Georgii 223, 16-23.
