No longer celebrated on March 22, but now on March 24?

“At the age of twelve or thirteen she married Lord Eggert van Kyren, a very religious young nobleman of German descent whom she persuaded to take a vow of absolute chastity, and both lived in a state of virginity. Catherine accompanied her mother to Rome in 1349, and soon upon arrival heard news of her husband's death.” (Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_of_Vadstena)

Her feast is apparently now celebrated on March 24.
