So, I am going to probably write a biography and maybe explain the sources a little. I am not sure exactly what I am supposed to do considering it only said soures.

Lapidge the Roman Martyrs, translation and commentary pp. 68-88 https://moodle.leeuniversity.edu/pluginfile.php/1783592/mod_resource/content/1/The%20Roman%20Martyrs_%20Introduction%2C%20Translations%2C%20and%20Commentary.pdf
Composed Arnobius the Younger c450. This leads Lapidge to believe that the Caecilia story is fictional and her martyrdom did not occur. Also, there is no reference to which Roman King she was killed under which is always mentioned in hagiographies so people know what time period it is at the very beginning.

Conclusion
It was honestly hard to find second hand sources. I do not even know how helpful the ones I found will be. I probably need to search a different way. There is a lot of information on St. Cecilia celebrations in the 1600s. The books might bring more insight. It was frustrating because many of the articles were not available to be read so you could not tell how useful they would be to research.
